Today is my 3 year surgiversary!

I'll be the first to admit it was rough the first year, but I still will never regret having WLS. Best thing I've ever done for myself!

I've lost 200 pounds and been able to maintain that loss with the exception of 5-10 pounds I play with up and down. I've realized that the numbers on the scale aren't as important as how I feel. I don't weight as often as I once did, but then I don't think any of us farther out do. Heck I used to weigh before and after I used the bathroom ... hahaha!

I'm still a rule follower. I haven't had carbonated stuff, and I haven't gone back to eating sweets, which was once my weakness. I also follow a 15/30 rule for drinking before and after meals, I really think that helps. I get all my protein from food and stopped protein supplements at 4 weeks after surgery per Dr's orders.  My blood tests are great and I'm now much healthier than I once was.

It's not and easy road, some days are far worse than others. I'm not perfect but I try hard.
