I am 2 years out and wearing a size 4. I am loving this new life. I eat so little at a time that I eat whatever I want. I only eat 2oz. at a time. I found that it works for me, and I get to eat anything. I don't recommend this to everyone because it takes will power to eat  this way. I wish everyone success!!!

Hello All!!!

    I made it 120lbs lighter.... 262 on January 11,2007. Now i am a whopping 142. I made it. I am wearing a 6 in womens an 7/9 in juniors. I have never been this small. I am loving it. looking younger and feeling it too...

Today is my New Life Birthday. This time last year I was waiting for my surgery. I am down 105 lbs and loving it!!!!

I have not been posting like I should, but  I am going to do better this year. I hope that everyone is having the success they wabt from the surgery. I know it was the best decision I ever made. I no longer take that Metformin for diabetes. Nor do I take Lipitor for cholesterol. I drink plenty of protein because I still dont eat much. Before the surgery I ate once a day so it is still easy to fall into that pattern. I'm supposed to eat every 2 to 3 hours since I still dont eat 3oz at a time. Make no mistakes I eat just not alot at one time.
   I still dump if I eat too much sugar..... I ate a piece of snicker and it made me pay for it. I don't do sweets often. My new life birthday is Friday Jan. 11, 2008. I will be a whopping 1 year old. I am loving every minute of it. I was fortunate not to have any complications. If you have any questions feel free to ask me. I am willing to be truthful with you about it all. I am wearing 8's in misses and 9/10 in juniors. I AM LOVING LIFE AND LIVING IT TO THE FULLEST.....

Hello all!! I am down to 178. I have been eating more meals as directed by my physician. I had a problem with not eating prior tp surgery. I only ate once a day so it is easy for me to fall in a pattern of not eating. I have with the help of my physician started eating every 3 hours. I still only eat 4oz at a time so it is not adding any weight and keeping my body fueled. I am having no problem with anything. I can eat whatever I want. I try to eat healthy, but I do cheat on a lemon head. I stay away from chocolate if at all possible.LOL
 I am wearing clothes from 10- 14p depending on the cut. I am loving it. My only problem is shopping. I never had to shop like this because I wore jeans and t-shirts all the time. Now I wear whatever I buy..... Thanks for all the encouragement and prayers...

I am eating my meals right....Yipee!!!!!!!! It was hard at first because I was so used to not eating. Now I get my protein in and eat my required meals. i weighed today. 182 lbs. I have lost 80 lbs since Jan.11, 2007. I thank GOD for this blessing. I would tell anyone with health problems that is related to weight to do their research and decide if the surgery is right for them. It was the right choice for me.... I am enrolled in a beginning physical fitness class which will start on the 27th at Cedar Valley College. i am looking forward to toning up..... Thanks for all the support.

I have not been eating right. I am not used to eating 3 meals a day so it is hard to eat. i am used to eating once a day. I get my protein in so i am healthy.

Finally!!!!   I made it under 200 lbs. I have not been walking like I need to because I am taking care of my mother, and that consmues all of my time. I will be back on track next week when I start back walking. Damn it feels good to be under 200lbs. I still have a way to go, but it is worth every minute of it.

I am now at 210lbs. Feeling better then I have in years. I have so much energy it great!! I have always been very active for my size, but now I am enjoying activities much more. I use EAS 100% Whey Protein that I buy at Sam's Wholesale Club. It has 23g per serving, and I drink 4 servings a day. That is 92g of protein a day. I am loving life!!!!!!!! if you are thinking about having the surgery I would suggest you research all the info and make sure you are ready for a lifestyle change. Then get the process started. I would do it all over again without a doubt.

It has been a wonderful experience for me to have a new start. I am loving my life and living everyday to the fullest. I am down to 220 lbs. from 262lbs. in January. I am wearing an 18 and loving that the weight is coming off. I exercise everyday to avoid as much excess skin as I can.
