2+ Years Post-Op Update
I finally updated my vlog http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRld8zpaXvM
For those who can't or don't want to go to youtube to watch the vlog:
- I am working too hard and have gotten away from taking care of me, not resting or exercising enough, not preparing meals
- I'm on day three of liquids/yogurt (keeping it simple) and my hunger is already back in control
- I have started my "fun" exercise back up again
- I have been at or around my original goal weight for several months or a year (not sure the exact date) but I'd like to lose 20-30 more lb by Dec 3rd, my next reconstructive surgery date
- My weight always has been and always WILL be a struggle. My VSG gave me an opportinity to struggle from a much ower weight
- Dr/ Agha did two revisions for me in his office, no extra fee and I LOVE my new neck/chinline
And lots more...

(Lost slowly and painfully from 355 to 275 from 2007-2009, then started gaining again before scheduling surgery! Best thing I ever did! :D)

VSG on 02/15/12
I'm so happy to see someone on here reach, actually surpass the goal weight I have set for myself. Jan 3rd 2012 I was 353, and I have a long way to go before I reach my goal of 160. Don't want to be too skinny, I think a woman should have curves! You have a beautiful sense of style and a beautiful shape---I'm talking about your before pics as well. Just how big has your closet grown now that you have achieved such an incredible transformation? Congratulations and thanks for the inspiration that achieving is possible.
Thank you! Actually I have LESS clothes because my reconstructive surgeries have me in debt, and I don't like that. But the nice thing is, clothing is cheaper at this size. I used to shop lane bryant and torrid.

Thanks! I have family history and proven/tested metabolic issues so it's more than just broken food thinking for me. Though I do have a few issues there too. Double whammy!
