Five years ago today my life was changed forever!!  I had RNY Gastric Bypass and have since lost 170 pounds!  I've completed 3 triathlons and many other races that I would have NEVER even dreamed of doing in my "old life"!  It certainly hasn't always been an easy road but I am commited to keeping it off, this new and improved lifestyle and am NEVER going back!  I want people to know that it IS possible to succeed and find happiness!  I am grateful for this life changing surgery and woud do it ALL over again in a second.  It's not magic, but an opportunity to get your life back and if I could do it, ANYONE can do it!!  I would love to hear how other July 06 grads are doing...post away!!
