3 years... oh how life changes

Aug 26, 2011

I was sitting in my office when I received an email from OH... I thought what could this be. Well what do you know, it was a congrats letter on my 3rd year anniversary of WL Surgery. I can hardly believe all that has changed in my life in the last three years... I have moved cities two times, got divorced, dated new men, lost over 100 pounds, bought a 2 piece swim suit, bought clothes at the mall in the "normal" girl sizes, had 1001 Ahha moments, and found myself (or at least found the path to finding myself). I want to say that never once have I regret ed my surgery, even when I had infections, ulcers, and when I ate too many carbs and huddled in the fetal position. I LOVE my WLS and  I would do it over again. I have had ups and downs but through it all I know that I have a new life and each day is a new adventure for me. I like being me, sometimes I don't like what I see or how I feel but I always know tomorrow can and will be better. Even three years later I am thankful everyday for this new beginning and the hope I now have. Thanks to all of you that inspired me, stuck with me during my crabby days, those of you that made me feel like I had a friend out there rooting for my success. OH has meant the world to me through my journey. Stay strong my OH friends
