hello my name is ericia and in 2006 i was at my highest weight of 385lbs i lost 30lbs and gained back. in 2008 i weighed 382lbs i was almost back up to my highest weight and i wanted to change my life. i wanted the gastric bypass and i would have did anything to get it. i was denied once. so i went to another surgeon and he said i had to lose 50lbs if i wanted this surgery.so i did just that plus more. 2/3/09 i had gastric bypass and this is my story.

oh my i am almost 3 months post op. i know this surgery was not going to be easy but i thought it wasn't going to be hard for me neither, i lost 78 on my own or i should say with the help of a diet pill. i could never lose weight on my own. when i first went in for the gastric bypass the doctor said it's only a jump start to weight loss and you have to do it like you would do it before. but come on only 34lbs in 3months. that's crazy. i know i been lacking off my protein and fluid but there are people that do and still lose a lot. well. that how i felt yesterday.
today is a new day and a new me, i can do this. it just take time,and hard work. i will not compare myself to anyone anymore. i am going to work really hard to lose this weight 10x harder then before.
my total weight loss is 112lbs and i have 130lbs to get to my goal. i know i mite not make it this year but i will get there.
this is my fight i been over weight since i was 12 at 274lbs. this is my lowest weight as a teenager and adult life. well this is a fight that i been fighting for 15 years. i somehow thought i wouldn't have to fight this after surgery. well i know and prey that i will make it.
