8 Years Later

Jul 19, 2008

Well it's been eight years and I have finally gotten back to my lowest weight since my Gastric Bypass.  I had two pregnancies within a year of my surgery and gained 35 pounds with the second one.  My child is now five years old and I have finally managed to lose the extra 35 pounds.  Now I'm attempting to finish losing the last 30 pounds to hit my goal weight of 125.  I am back into a size 12 and very happy about that, but I'd still like to go a little further.  It's hard to diet, I kind of wish the lapband had been around 8 years ago.  I could just go get it cinched up and bingo, weight loss.  Plus then I wouldn't have to deal with the lactose intolerance or the dumping.  Oh well, at least I haven't been 269 pounds for the past 8 years.  Thanks to Dr. Rumsey in San Diego, he gave me my life back.  I'll post again next year..
