Good morning all I have finally done it ,I got weighed this morning and the scale said 199.5. I ran around the house(carefully because of just having a historectomy) singing Oh Happy Day. I was 15 the last time I weighed that little.
I am now 13 months and 5 days out from the most wonderful life saving surgery. Thanks for all of you support it has ment so much to me.

Love, Victoria

I have always wanted to do the Relay for life 24 hour cancer walk but with an extra 150 pounds it was not possible. That was last year this year I joined a team and started walking yesterday at 11 am I took breaks and ate and hydrated a lot. I walked 7 3/4 miles on Saturday. I came haome and got 5 hours sleep then got up at 4:00 AM and went back to the track. I walked 2 1/4 miles that gave me 10 miles. this was my fairy tale goal of what I wanted to do, AND I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
I cried on my last time aroud because I was so damn proud of myself. I could not believe it. If anyone wants to be a part of it next year let me know. It will be at Pennsbury High School Fairless hills Pa, At the end of June 2009. I am almost at my 1 year surgaversary ( July 12) and I could not even imagine what I would be doing this year. Thank you for supporting me in good and bad. It is a blessing to be among other people who understand.

I am 9 months out and 226 pounds. That is 135 pounds down this morning. That it my Dr's one year goal for me. I can't express how fantastic i feel. I am gardening all day then going for a walk at night. After that I am cleaning the kitchen. Last year I would have been exhausted after pulling a few weeds. It has made me better in all aspects of my life. As far as skin goes my arms are very bad but the rest of me is fine.
My stomach is flatter then i thoucht especially after 3 kids. The only regret I have is not having it sooner.

I had my 6 month visit. Everyone was pleased about the 111 pounds I have lost. My BMI has gone from 55% to38%. I can not put into words how thrilled and energetic I am. I love the gym and am ther 4 times a week. I have my life back for the first time 15 years. Good luck and God bless to all who have this surgery. It has changed my life more then anything has.

Talk to you soon,
Victoria

As of this morning I weigh 298 that is 66 pounds down from my starting weight of 364.
I had a 4 week stall and it did mess with my mind. After failing at so many diets I thought it was happening again. Keep on going and be confident in the surgery you have had.

I had my 2 month appointment today. I have lost 46.5 pounds and I feel great. No food issues and I am getting my Prot. and Water in. This surgery has been a blessing. Hope everyone is doing well.

I had no complicatons and I feel great. My weight has gone from 361 pounds to 322 pounds. I have a lot of energy and no pain. I am eating the foods on my list with no issues but peanut butter made me feel queasy I will wait to try that again.

I am excited today because I only have a week to surgery. I am ready to start a new healthy life. Everyone has me on there prayer list and the baby sitting arrangements are set.

Yes I have a date  July 12 . I am so happy I can't stand it. It has taken 4 years of hard work .
