My life since surgery....

Jul 20, 2018

Life since surgery... where do I start? My gastric bypass surgery was 03/05/2018. I'm happy to say that I have not been sick one time since surgery. I went into surgery knowing that this was my one shot to get it right. I told myself that I was going to do everything in my power to follow the plan so that I could hopefully avoid problems along the way. 

I've been asked many times that if I had it to do all over again, would I? Let me say "Yes" that I would 100% definitely do it again as it is giving me my life back. Before surgery I weighed 324.6 pounds and was out of shape, everything hurt and I was short of breath with little exertion. I could not do the things that I loved doing when I was younger and smaller...I felt that if I didn't do something about my condition that my health and quality of life would keep on deteriorating. 

Since my surgery I have lost 82 pounds and am so excited about the future. I won't say that it has been easy, but, it has truly helped me being on this website reading everyones stories, seeing before and after photos and checking out the forums when I have a question about something going on with me. 

I truly wish everyone great success in your journey. Thanks for the much needed inspiration and motivation. :)
