6 month surgiversary

Jun 11, 2010

So yesterday came and went without a second thought.  Then I woke up this morning and realized it was 6 months ago that I had my surgery - where has the time gone????

A lot has happened in 6 months...

I am down 35 lbs since surgery (79 total).  I am extremely proud of all I have accomplished in the past year and a half and am looking forward to the next leg of my journey.

I have discovered a love for exercise- especially Yoga...I have bent myself into shapes I thought only pretzels could accomplish.

I am more active and less bitchy....my blood sugar is under better control (not perfect yet, but well on the way)- I am wayyyy less stressed - I can do stuff without dreading "Ugh I have to go up the stairs".

I am running a 3.5 mile race next week in Central Park - if you hear a thump - that was me passing out and mile 1.=)

I feel good for the most part.  I have strangers walk up to me at work and tell them I am their inspiration - wow - me????? really?????

I have come so far and still have so far to go....there are still days when I feel like nothing more than "that fat chick" and there are days I feel on top of the world - thankfully the later are more frequent.

Onward and downward!
