BACK....LIKE I LEFT SUMN!!!
Nov 16, 2011
WHATS UP EVERYBODY!!! IM SO GLAD TO FINALLY BE BACK AMONGST YOU GUYS AGAIN. I KNOW Y'ALL PROBABLY THINKING I GOT MY SURGERY AND RAN BUT I PROMISE IT WASNT LIKE THAT PEOPLE. IT'S JUST THAT SOMETIMES WE LET THE STRESS OF LIFE CAUSE US TO NOT DO THINGS THAT WE KNOW WE SHOULD BE DOING. CAUSE I KNEW I SHOULD'VE BEEN ON HERE CHOPPING IT UP WITH FELLOW MEMBERS, ESPECIALLY ALL THE NEWBIES. BUT ALL THAT ASIDE IM BACK NOW READY TO TAKE THE BULL BY THE HORNS!ALRIGHT, LAST TIME I POSTED A BLOG HERE I HAD JUST HEARD THAT I HAD GOTTEN APPROVED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND I GAVE YOU ALL MY SURGERY DATE. WHICH WAS ON APRIL 6TH 2011. THAT DATE WAS ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. SO IM CURRENTLY 7 MONTHS POST OP. OKAY HERES MY LITTLE OVERVEIW: WHEN I FIRST STARTED THIS JOURNEY MY HIGHEST WEIGHT WAS 637LBS AND I HAD A BMI OF ABOUT 82 OR MORE. I LOST 47LBS BEFORE MY SURGERY DATE PUTTING ME AT 590LBS ON THE DAY OF MY SURGERY. SINCE SURGERY IVE LOST 130LBS PUTTING ME AT 460LBS TODAY ON NOV. 16TH 2011. SO IN ALL THATS A TOTAL LOSS OF 177LBS!!!! IM FEELING SO MUCH BETTER THESE DAYS Y'ALL. I STILL GOT A LONG WAY TO GO BUT JUST THE SMALL DISTANCE IVE COME HAS MADE SUCH A DIFFERENCE. IF ANYBODY ASKED ME WOULD I DO THIS AGAIN? MY ANSWER IS HELLLLLLL YEAH, DONT PLAY LOL!!! I HAD NO PROBLEMS DURNING OR AFTER MY SURGERY. EVERYTHANG WAS SMOOTH AS A BABY'S ASS. I HAD NO PAIN, NOT FROM THE SURGERY ANYWAY. I CAUGHT A BAD CASE OF THE GOUT RIGHT AFTER SURGERY BUT I HAD ISSUES WITH THAT BEFORE THE SURGERY. AND ALL THE OTHER PAINS I HAVE ARE ALL ASSOCIATED WITH ISSUES I HAD WAY BEFORE SURGERY. SO IN MY OPINION AND MANY OTHER PROFFESIONAL ASWELL. THIS SURGERY IS ABOUT AS SAFE AS ANY OTHER SURGERY OUT THERE. SO I SAY IF YOU WANT IT AND YOU NEED IT...DO IT!!! IT'S THE BEST MOVE I EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. I HAVE NEVER LOST THE AMOUNT OF WEIGHT IVE LOST SINCE HAVING IT DONE. AND THE LITTLE NSV'S ARE SO PRECIOUS AND DEAR TO ME. I MEAN YOU GUYS WOULDNT BELIEVE THE THINGS IM ABLE TO DO NOW. THE CLOTHES THATS BEEN IN THE CLOSET FOR YRS IS STARTING TO FIT AGAIN. GETTING IN AND OUT OF THE CAR IS SO MUCH EASIER NOW. AND THE ROOM!!! THE ROOM BEHIND THE WHEEL NOW IS SO MUCH MORE SPACIOUS!!!! I MEAN I COULD GO ON ON ON CAUSE ITS JUST SO MANY THINGS THATS STARTING TO COME BACK TO ME AGAIN. I HAVE LITERALLY TAKEN YEARS OFF MY BODY!!! IM 37 YRS OLD NOW AND THE LAST TIME I WEIGHED 4 ANYTHING. I WAS AROUND 25 YRS OLD. SO THATS 12 YRS OF WEIGHT THAT I HAVE RELEASED FOREVER. AND WHEN I SAY FOREVER I MEAN FOR DAMN EVER!!!! THEY SAY DONT SAY NEVER BUT IM NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER GOING BACK TO THAT AGAIN, THATS MY WORD!!! BUT ANYWAY, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANKS TO EVERYONE ON HERE WHO HAS TAKEN TIME TO TALK AND EXPLAIN ISSUES THAT I HAD ON HERE AS A NEWBIE. AND I WANT TO SHOW MY THANKS BY PAYING IT FOWARD. SO I EXTEND MY HAND TO ANYBODY ON HERE IN SEARCH HELP AND ANSWERS. IM NOT AN EXPERT OR NOTHING LIKE THAT BUT I DONT MIND SHARING MY EXPERIENCES WITH ANYONE. YOU GUYS CAN INBOX ME AND I WILL RESPOND AS SOON AS I GET YOUR MESSAGES. I SEE I HAVE QUITE A FEW MESSAGES TO RETURN NOW SO IF YOU ASKED ME SOMETHING RECENTLY YOU WILL BE RECIEVING AN ANSWER MOMENTARILY. OH AND FEEL FREE TO INBOX ME YOUR NUMBERS SO I CAN TEXT YOU MINE.
