Turning 35 This Week

Apr 25, 2010

 Okie Dokie,
I'm turning 35 this week - and at 1 year and 4 months out from my RNY, I'm feeling great.
Sure, I still have problems with my low blood sugar, but I control it by eating more frequently. Well, for the most part, my days are full of chasing the kid around, cleaning, cooking and all of that fun stuff that a stay at home mom does.

I've done good maintaining my weight loss and am enjoying every experience life sends my way. I've been away from OH for a while, simply because I've been way super busy - Our house is going to be in foreclosure soon, so I was in charge of packing the house, finding us an apartment, moving everything and taking care of trying to short sale the house (with no luck). I've been out of work since September, but have been very unsuccessful at finding a new job that I am qualified for. Graphic Design jobs are few and far between during a rough economy (the first thing a business cuts is its advertising/marketing budget).

For now, my husband has agreed that financially it is best for me to be a stay at home mom for the summer so we don't have to put our daughter in daycare. I have decided that I will begin going to college at night in order to attain a criminal justice degree - to which I later hope to add a degree in psychology. 

So, I'm turning 35. Life has been upside down lately, but in reality, it's like life just beginning. I'm so thankful for the changes surgery has brought my way - and even though I have had a myriad of challenges to battle as well, I realize that it's true that what does not kill us makes us stronger.

Love to all my WLS peeps over here at OH. You've been a great support to me through my post surgery process and I appreciate your courage to share and care for each other.
