6 year anniversary
Feb 26, 2013
On February 19th, I celebrated my 6th year after my gastric bypass. I am proud to say that i am still healthy, slim, and confident! I am so glad i don't have to struggle with my food intake any more. Use to, I could clean my entire plate and then some, plus desert. Now I eat my proportioned amount and that is all i can take in, i'm full after that. I am holding steady at my current weight at 176 which is perfect for my size and height. I am in a size 8 - 10, up from a size 6. I like how i look now, at a size 6 i looked sick, cheeks were sunk in, looked really bad, so i'm very pleased where i am now. I am so thankful that i had the gastric bypass done, i would do it in a heartbeat! If you are reading this and are considering the bypass, really research it, i have friends that have that have had this surgery and gained ALL of their weight back. I luckily have kept most of mine off, however i'v also had two back surgeries, and will have a 3rd on tomorrow. So I haven't been able to really exercise much do to my back hurting all the time. But when I do get back in the rythem of things I will get back down to a size 8, thats only about 2 inches, but being in a single digit of clothing is a big deal. I have fallen short of taking my suplements and i'm paying for it now. My eye sight has gone from walmart reading glasses to tri-focals, i'm now anemic and have to take iron. So it is very important that you take your suplements as directed because if you don't, it will effect you. Good luck!
