What a diffrence 2 years makes

Mar 02, 2010

On Feb 18th i celebrated the second anniversary of my weight loss surgery.
It has been an incredible journery so far,and i still have a long way to go.
I have lost a total of 269 pounds.Weight loss has gotten alot slower.But it happens still.I have my life back and no diabetes...I have good days and bad with my eating,but i try to do the best i can with the tool i have been given..I rode a roller coaster this summer,and going on vacation in a few weeks on a plane to Arizona.
I have started college, became a support group leader through OH.My life goes nonstop...
Sometimes i get so busy that i forget to eat and then i suffer because i get bad gas and hiccups..
That is the only side effect from my surgery that is hard to deal with THE GAS..Its horrible,but Beano helps alot.
I have grown to love food in a whole new way,i love the spices and flavor.
The main thing is food no longer controls my life,its still a part of it.
But i dont wake up thinking about it instead its like wonder what i can find to do today.
I love buying new clothes and for the first time in my life i feel sexy and now when i see a mirror i DONT run from it, i actually stop and look in it and smile at myself and say not bad,but i now im still under construction or rentovation..
There was some big changes this year,i almost lost my husband because he couldnt handle my weight loss.But thanks to some advice from a good friend we have worked it all out and our realtionship is awesome.
My children love the fact we can do things as a family..
I thank God and Dr.Sonnastine for giving me my life back..I also thank my husband who reenlisted so that i could have the surgery.
Everyday is an adventure for me and im livin my life in the fast lane..HUGGS
