One year reflection....

No pictures..... I look great but that is just a bonus for all my hard work.

I had this surgery to live a longer, healthier life.....and its working.

I have weighed myself only 4 times in a year. Each time was at the MD office.

I refuse to be a slave to a number and obsess about the ups and downs of my body for ONCE in my life.

I am at my surgeons goal weight......she said I am the first revision patient she has had in over 20 years to reach goal.

I didn't look at it as a revision.....I looked at this as a chance to live.

While one year is just the beginning and I look at each day as just a string of 24 hours and take it one day at a time.

I make time for me now. Time to plan my food. Time to exercise. Time to rest and play.

To all of you struggling, whether just starting or years out, you are worth taking TIME to live well......

Congrats on your success. Keep up the great work.

Well Said!

  Way to go, Saterry. Excellent work.

Good for you.  Congratulations.

You go girl!!
