2 year anniversary
May 12, 2011
It has been 2 years since my surgery. I am 63 years old and I have been obese for over 40 years of my life. I am not anymore. I am normal.It is amazing the changes that I have been through during the past two years. The freedom from pain, fear of getting larger and larger and the emerging of my true self.
I have spent my life working around my size, trying to loose weight, pretending it didn't matter.
Since my weight loss of 110or more lbs., I feel reborn. I have gone from a 3X to a size 10 and a medium in clothing. I can walk without pain. I take no prescription medicine, only vitamins. I'm never hungry and I eat to live not live to eat. I enjoy my food but I don't think about it all the time.
I am so grateful to everyone at the Oregon Bariatric Department at Sacred Heart Hospital at Riverbend, in Springfield, Oregon. My support group has made all the difference in my successful journey.
Tonight I will talk at an informational seminar at River Bend in Springfield to people who are just beginning their journey. I hope I can inspire them and give them realistic expections so that they can experience the freedom I have found.
