5 months out and 100lbs gone!!!
Hi everyone!!!!
I haven't been on here much lately but that is because I have been so busy enjoying my new life!!!! I am 5 months out and down exactly 100lbs!!! I have been one of the very fortunate that have not had any complications and have already been considered a success by the Humber Bariatric Clinic . Everything in life has changed. Most for the better and some not so much..... I am loving going to Canada's Wonderland with my kids and going on whatever ride I please, sitting on the floor and playing with my 3 year old (and getting back up!!!). Work is a piece of cake! I am able to be on my feet for my whole shift and still come home and do whatever is waiting for me there and walk the dogs!!! My marriage is suffering a bit these days, mostly due to my husband's new found insecurity but we're working on it!
I still have no idea how to post a photo on here so here is the link to my pic!

That's amazing! It is so nice to hear about happy you are and all that you can do. Of course people are looking great too, but, I think it is how you feel and what you can do that is really important :)
My husband was a bit concerned in the beginning, before I had surgery, but, we talked about it a lot and he seems to be doing okay-so far, lol. Keep the lines of communication open and it will be easier on him :)

The race isn't given to the swift nor the strong, but it's given to the ones who endure it to the end...
Wonderful success for what seems to be such a short time frame! What do you think helped you to come down 100lbs in only 5 months? Any secrets? lol
