I know its been forever but i'm 1yr post op!!!
Feb 23, 2011
I can't believe its been soooo long since I last posted. I got so caught up with school and work... and not to mention my computer broke!!!! So I had no computer since Oct of last year up until now!!!So I am officially 1 year post op!!! Wow what an amazing but crazy journey!
I would recomend this surgery to anyone!!! I feel great!
So starting my journey 6 months pre op I was at 435lbs... (ugh..)
now 18months later (1yr post op + 6months pre op) I am now 209lbs!!!
I started out at a size very tight 32 jeans day of surgery to a size... drum roll please.... lol a size 12!!! and my shirts are a size XL some large now which is good coming from a 6XL...
I am just very thankful to have come this far... even though I am yet to be in the 100s I think I have done outstanding...
don't get me wrong I still have things I really shouldn't but its not pigging out or anything.. I learned the best thing to do is not to limit yourself and say... oh no i can't have that... but to say yes I can have that but only a few bites here and there...
I have finished school and now I am a nationally certified medical assistant.. just searching for a job now.. can't wait!
I do notice that I like to be around people who didn't know me before surgery.. I just feel weird around those who knew me before at my highest weight.. always feels like they are stalking me with their eyes...
I wish everyone well I will be getting back on much sooner!!!
Good luck to everyone.. remember don't give up!!!
YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!
