TIME FLIES! 8-22-2012

Aug 22, 2012

So here I am, almost 6 years out and I am still shouting from the rooftops that my RNY, Gastric Bypass was the BEST THING I have ever done for myself!!! I won't tell you it has always been easy. I have had medical problems, ranging from Gallbladder, Kidney, and Joint issues. Gone through one hip and knee replacement and a bowel obstruction. Bottom line is, I am HAPPY TO BE ALIVE!!

I can honestly say that at 424 lbs. I was never really happy, and I sure wasn't healthy.  Without this surgery, I am sure I wouldn't be alive now and I know I wouldn't be happy if I was still around at that weight.. 

Last year, I dropped down to 145 pounds, and  now back up to 165. I am going to try to find a happy medium and shooting for 155 lbs. I hope to have plastic surgery in the future to get rid of some extra skin and that will bring me down to where I should be at the scale.
