An update :)

 Wow, so it's been forever since I've been on here!  I'm almost 2 years out now!  Gosh I still can't believe how fast the time has flown by!  So I'm about 135- 140 now guess I put on a few lbs :/ ugh sucks saying that!  My mom swears I look better now though.. typical mom ;) I'm currently finishing up school, I'm in a medical assisting program, just started my externship at a general surgeons office, one that just so happen to specialize in bariatric surgery!  I didn't even plan on that happening it just sorta did. Check out Dr Jeffrey Johnsrud, he's amazing! Anyways I'm having a lot of fun with that, I love being able to relate to the patients!  They can't believe I've had gastric bypass, so much fun telling them about how far I've come!  And it's nice to be able to get a doctors advice all the time ;)  So I'm currently experiencing a ton of nausea and vomiting, two years out and this is really my first time having any probs... I did battle some anemia though, but then again I've been anemic forever.. nothing a little iron transfusion couldn't fix.  I will be going to see a hematologist next week though.  So  my surgeon wants me to get an upper GI and a CAT scan, just need to work out the details for that, hopefully we'll get to the bottom of this horrible nausea! Ummmm.... So just got back from another trip to Hawaii, so much fun!!  Love hanging out with my sis (and sharing her clothes ;) Just celebrated 5 months with the most amazing boyfriend ever :)  Pretty sure he's "the one" :)  I've waited a long time for someone as amazing as him!  He's an elementary school teacher and he is amazing with my son and treats me like a total princess :)  We're actually talking about moving to Hawaii..but we'll see...
