It has been two years since I had My Gastric Bypass. I am soooooo Happy I made this choice, it was the Best for me! I am Happier, Healthier and Full of Energy.... Happy Holidays to All of My OH Family!

I finally hit my Goal weight. I am actually under it by a pound. I am now weighing in at 149 pounds from 264 that's 115 pounds gone. Am enjoying wearing size small shirts and size 10 - 12 pants. Loving Life to the FULLEST. Thanks so much for my tool that helped me reach my goal.

Have not been writing about my WLS in quite awhile. I still have those last 5 pounds to get off. Seems like I am at a LONG STALL! Actually I am okay with where I am right now. Still wearing a size 12...I do need to get some new scrub pants for work my size Mediums are TOO BIG...time to get size Small.Who would of ever thought..me a size Small...Cool

I am still trying to get the last 5 pounds off. I do believe it is time to step up the excersing ...Saturday is the March of Dimes walk in Dover, Delaware. My husband John and I are going to walk 2.5 miles. This will be my first walk like this. I have raised over 100.00 so far. Not Bad for a first timer... Loving my WLS more and more each day.
 
All I can say is Thank You My Texas Friend Laura for her continued support...

I am losing very slow..I have 5 pounds to go to reach my personal goal. I wear a size 12 jeans and a size Med. shirt. Long way from my previous size 22-24 shirt and size 24 jeans. I Can Do Anything now Thanks to my RNY...I am walking for Thr March of Dimes on the 24th of this month. It is a 2.5 mile walk. My Great Neice and Great Nephew were born Nov. 7th, almost 3 months too soon. Thanks to March of Dimes for all of their continued help. The twins are doing Great. Caroline is home but Cameron is still in the hospital. He had to have a trac put in. But he is doing so much better. So I wanted to support them by being a part of The Ridgeway Angels walk with March of Dimes. I did get $100.00 in donations for the walk.

I finally dropped 3 pounds. It has taken awhile but YIPPEEEE! I now have 6 pounds to go..I will get there with all my OH friends support.  Thank You, Thank You!!!! All I can say is that my WL has been a journey and not an easy one. I will always be Thankful for my TOOL to help me on my way.I know you not supposed to say never (you know the never say never thing) but here goes" I will NEVER let Food take control of me again. I have worked sooooooooooooooo hard to get where I am and FINALLY feel human again. I LOVE this feeling. My second chance at life is going to be WONDERFUL!  My new Moto: JUST DO IT! GO OUT AND ENJOY LIFE!

Yes, I am at a stall. Cannot seem to get the last 9 pounds off . HELP!!!!   I feel wonderful. Wish I had my surgery years ago. I am getting tired of people saying "DON'T LOSE ANYMORE YOUR TO SMALL". When I was 264 pounds all I heard was you need to lose weight...I am Happy where I am in life!   Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would get the weight off...But here I am .Okay go away 9 pounds!

The weight is now coming off very slow. I started out 264, had RNY December 10,2008.CURRENT WEIGHT IS 159. I must say in the beginning I thought the weight would never leave. Than I suddenly realized I was smaller. WOW! I wore a size 2-3x shirts, size 24-26 pants and yes the undies were size 10..NOW....I wear a size M or L shirt,size small scrubs, size 10-12 jeans depending on where I buy them, size 6 undies, my bras are size 34 nearly B from a 38 C. My biggest Challenge has been to make sure I eat enough. My body does let me know if it is time to eat. I get a very uncomfortable feeling in my stomach .....Which is a good sign sometimes I get busy and forget to eat. So CHEERS to me and my OH Family!!!

I have nine pounds to go to hit my GOAL of 150..  .NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS DID I THINK I WOULD WEIGH ....WHAT I WEIGHED WHEN I WAS IN MY TWENTIES...YESSSSSSSSS I DID IT OR SHOULD I SAY WE DID IT THANKS TO MY RNY TOOL AND OH FAMILY.....

Yesterday I weighed in at 161. I have slowed down on the weight loss. But that is okay. I have now lost a total of 103 pounds. WOW ! WOW ! WOW for me! My one year surgery Anniversary is on December 10th I wanted to lose at least 100  by than and I have met that goal. Will just keep working on the other 11 pounds. Merry Christmas to ALL OF MY OH FAMILY! WITHOUT YOU THIS JOURNEY WOULD OF BEEN VERY HARD. THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS,
JOAN
