Life is still GREAT!!! Coming up on my 7th year out. Started weight was 311 and as of today I am 178. Even though I feel like I am gaining I have to remember I am 52 years old and a size 14 is just fine. I have some issues catching up to me. I have bowel problem. Chronic constipation. I am having arthritis issues but are these from my surgery or just with age. I will tell you I am very active. Life is non stop at my house. My girls are 14 and starting highschool. They don't remember the FAT mom. My husband and I are still very happy and I did not substitue my food addiction for something else.I was ask by my GI doctor if this were necessary would I reverse my surgery. I of course said "NO". He told me that since I have kept the weight off all these years I have changed me life and I would probably not go back to eating like I did in the past. I hope I never have to prove his idea.
My sisters have also kept their weight off. Of course we all have struggled with a few pounds of weight. Mimi is still a size six and Amy is still around a 14. Sarah has kept all her weight off. So as a family of 4 women we hope we have changed our future.
Thanks to Dr. Tom for a wonderful job with our family. We truely miss him. I hate that he had to move his practice but he is able to reach out to a whole new population of people.
I am ask over and over again, would i do it again and the answer is HELL YES!!!!.
