Wow where the heck did this year go? 

I have not updated on here in a while and figured it was about time.  I am now about 18months post op.  I am down right around 245 lbs..  I would do this again in a heartbeat if I had too..   

This year sure went fast.  I finally got to see my folks for the first time after losing all of the weight.  What a shock when i walked into their house a day early and they just sat there for several minutes trying to figure out what to say..  

I have decided to go back to college, just finished up my first term.  I am taking a program for a health unit cordinator at the local community college, then once this is done in april, i will continue with my pre requs for the nursing program.

I hope you all have a great Holliday season and a Great New Years.  Keep up the hard work.

6 Months Post op

Dec 25, 2008

Well what a ride this has been..  I can't believe it has been six months from surgery already. I started this journey at almost 375lbs and as of today I am down 180lbs.  As many of you know I lost my job with the travel agency last June, and switched surgens after my approval so I could have my surgery before my cobra kicked in.  Dr. S rocks, if I had to do this all over I would do it in a new york minute.  

I was just offered a job last week so 2009 is going to start off great.  I am with in a few pounds of my ideal goal weight that I have set for myself.  Part of me is greatfull that i have been out of work the last part of the year so I could focus on my health and getting my weight off.  I am spending 1.5-2.0 hours 5 or 6 days a week at the gym.  I know I have lost my weight really fast but the gym has played a big part of this.

If I can be any help to anyone please contact me.  Everyone keep up the great work you are all doing.

Have a great and Happy New Years
