Update

Sep 18, 2011

 I can't believe its been so long since I updated. Life has been crazy but wonderful. I'm holding at 155 lb size 8. I work out several times a week. Love my Saturday morning zumba class.  Recently got hubby's MS diagnoses but we take it day by day. Whatever happens, we will deal with it. I think what people say about marriage is right. If you have a strong marriage, it gets stronger. 

I've gone to two plastics consults. I may do the boobs shortly bc I have a painful hernia that I need taken care of and hate the thought of going under for only one reason. I liked Ungson's horizontal incision to heal from and now know that is difficult to get a tummy tuck due to the blood supply issue. Really complicates the operation so I'm scared to do the tummy right now. 

Definitely, lost some friends. I think jealousy is the reason. I really don't feel like I've changed personality wise. But have many new friends that care about me. 

I have definitely gained independence through this process. C was sick before our normal July 4th trip and the best thing for him was a quiet house, so I went ahead and took the three little kids on a 2800 mile trip by MYSELF.  If I can do that, I feel like I can do ANYTHING. None of this would be possible without my ds. I'm so much better worker, mother, wife, friend. I can work all day in 4 in heels, work out, take care of the family, cook and clean and feel terrific.
