1 year Surgiversary

Mar 11, 2010

Life is GOOD!!! I celebrate my 1 year surgiversary today. It has been the best decision I have ever made. I am sooooo much happier. I am proud of myself. I am not embarassed to go anywhere. I can run!!!! Sex is better, my monthly moodiness is better, I am not depressed, I have energy, I am happy!!! I went from a tight 26/28 to a loose 16 and a 3xl shirt to a large!! Can you believe I can wear a large top & bottom?!?!?!

Because of my decision to have weight loss surgery my husband and best friend are taken on the journey. My husband had his in October & my best friend will have hers next week!! I am sooo excited for them!! A year ago I never would have imagined that my decision would have affected so many people.

I asked my kids this morning if they've noticed a difference in me this past year: my 5 year old said I was older and when you get old your clothes have to change. My 9 year old on the other hand didn't want to hurt my feelings. I told him I wanted his honest answer & he wouldn't hurt my feelings. He said I was not big like I use to be and that I was happier & a better mommie!! What more could I ask for!!!

No I haven't reached my goal yet and right now I am ok with that. I am happy where I am at. No I don't want to stay here but it is a hell of alot better than where I came from. I am about 6 lbs or so from the century club & can't wait to get there and about 35 or so from goal. I know I can & will make it. I need to work it a little harder. But what is great is I have NEVER made it through Christmas with out gaining. I have only lost 2 or 3 lbs since then so I know how to maintain. Which means to me I won't gain my weight back!!!!!
