Hi there, had my follow up with my internist today.  He will fax everything to my surgeon Dr Gibbs to review just in case.  Overall everything was great.  This past year, i did gain 7 lbs, but will be back to exercising after the 1st of the year.  We are actually going to Florida for Christmas vacation- so I may loose some then.  All of my blood work looked awesome.  While it is a hassle to go get the checkups and wait forever to give 5 viles of blood-- it's great to know that i am healthy and on track to live a long life!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!!

Hi there, just wanted to let everyone know that I am doing fine.  I currently weigh in at 148 lbs-- 140 is where I like to be, but this last year had a lot of stressfull times-- I have kept of 132 lbs out of the 140 that I lost.  Not bad for 4 years!!  It's going to be a busy end of the year-- my goal for the new one is to start working out again-- I am in terrible shape now and will have to start over again.  

I have learned so many things about life-- like when things are stressful even now I still want to eat!!  Sometimes, it makes me very sad that I can't kill the pain with food anymore.  Don't get me wrong-- I still sometimes eat when I'm not hungry etc, but eating no longer feels good like it used to.  

Having this surgery and deciding to take control was the absolute best things that I have ever done for myself or in turn my family.  While, I still have goals that I want to achieve in life I know that they will be easier now that I can move around better & fell better in general.
