As stated in my intro I had my surgery on Dec 21st of 07. I am a 25 year old fun and fabulous lady who just moved to the ATL and am having a blast! I am an extremely tenacious person who had a goal to make an efffort to get my weight off by the end of 06! WLS as of today has helped me to lose a total of 75 lbs. apprx 47% of my goal weight. I am excited about my progress 4 mnths in the game. I haven't told the world abuot my surgery, just my close friends and family. I had major support from my friends and most family members. In the begining it was easy, but progressively gets harder day by day. Those looking into the surgery please note that this is not a quick fix. You have a tool and have to work it! Your mental takes time to catch up with all these physical changes. At times I want a loaded bake potato, hell I would settle for one with just margerine, but I can't. Will power is needed b/c after a while you can eat almost everything. Remember that you are on a mission. You didn't have surgery and go through all that pain and risking your life to revert back to your old ways. Stay focussed, it's hard but worth it once you do. I will continue to update on my blog...so keep chiming in!!
