Talking Two years today!

Two years ago today I weighed 301 lbs. and I got my surgery done! I've lost over 100 lbs. and I'm really glad I did it.

YAY!

That's really encouraging, good for you!
Did you have many complications since your surgery?

Nope, no complications whatsoever. I actually hadn't even been back to the doctor since my post surgery check up like two weeks out.

I'm going tomorrow to get a physical and I'm gonna have them run blood work to make sure I'm not vitamin deficient or anything else. I want to get my cholesterol checked too cause it was a tiny bit high before surgery and I want to see what it's at now.

Congratulations! Two years and still going strong is a great accomplishment. I love to see the long time post op people posting. It's a good reminder that I have to be vigilant. Enjoy your re-birthday!

hah well this is kinda funny...at the holidays, my weight went up and I've been working my butt off since the first to get back down to where I was. I made it, but now my goal is to keep going and actually lose this last bit of weight.

It does make me a bit angry that I paid $12,000 and now I'm right back where I was before surgery...on a constant diet. There's nothing I can do about it though!
