5 years
Dec 14, 2009
It has been 5 years since my surgery. I am still happily slim and active. I have been given, and taken full advantage of, a wonderful new life. It isn't easy though....this many years out, I find it is easy to eat the wrong things and gain weight. I still can't over eat but a little stomache can still hold too many calories from chocolate!
I did have excess skin removed earlier this year, finally...it just never went away like I had hoped.
Advice...get active....stay active.
I have taken up SCUBA diving. I recommend it to everyone...no matter the size. There is something magical about the weightless feeling. I have talked with many heavy people who do it and it is an amazing feeling to them to feel maneauverable and light so this activity can start while you are heavier and follow you along your weightloss journey.
Regards,
Valerie
