Today is my one year surgiversary!  How time flies when you're on a wild ride. I would have never imagined that I would feel this wonderful after a year.  This was the best thing I have ever done for myself and would selfpay again in a second.  It's defiantly not the easy way out, but it's not the hardest thing I've ever done either.  It's a life style change that I was all too happy to make.  My favorite NSV along the way has been the fact that when I started working out, the towel at the gym wouldn't even fit around me and now it overlaps by at least 6 inches.  This makes me feel good every time.  My best advice is to keep following your program.  Stay the course thru stalls, TOM, stress, etc.  It's frustrating, but it works.  Now the numbers:

                                             4/20/10                            4/20/11                        Difference
Weight                                    245                                     140                            105
Waist                                        46                                        29                              17
Hips                                          50                                       36                               14
Thigh                                        29                                       21                                8
Chest                                       41                                       32                                9
Arms                                         16                                      11.5                             4.5
Neck                                          14                                     12.5                            1.5



I love paying it forward, so I started the KC area support group (meeting this Saturday) and I try to learn something new everyday.  If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer.  If you are on the fence about having surgery, just do it!!!!
