I thought I would stop by my old page.  I am so happy I did this blog way back then.  It really helps me to understand my mindset.  Anyway, I am doing just fine. Never regretted my RNY in December, 2008. I am still a size 14. Got as low as a size 12, but at 51 1/2, holding steady at size 14 without much effort.  I eat just about anything I want.  I have to be careful with too much sugar - it makes me dump, still to this day. But that's fine.  Who needs so much sugar?   I have to be careful with alcohol  - I get buzzed very quickly.  But I don't have problems with gas anymore thankfully.

I am currently mentoring a couple of people who are considering WLS and I am encouraging them heartily "If I did it, you can too!".

Along the journey, my beloved husband passed away 6 months ago, of Pancreatic Cancer, at the too-young age of 56.  He suffered so much and it was hard to watch.  My father died last month.  My daughter is now 14 and doing fine, adjusting to High School.  So it's me and her now.  But I am so happy in my body with my weight loss that at least it is never going to be  source of stress any more. I have enough from other sources.

If anyone logs on to check me out, I want to thank them for thinking of me and I wish everybody health, happiness and successful surgeries.
