hockeymom1010 got a reaction from magtart in 1 year surgiversary!
Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my story. This past Tuesday marked my one year anniversary. BEST. DECISION. EVER. I have been off all diabetes medications since the day of my surgery. 2 needles and 2 doses of metformin daily. DONE. I am down to a size 8, and a medium shirt. I've never felt better. I eat what I want, but obviously in much smaller quantities. Good luck to anyone that is taking this journey. It's been a hell of a ride!!

Thanks Everyone!! To answer the question how much weight have I lost? I would say it's almost 90 pounds from my heaviest. That being said, I had lost about 35 pounds prior to surgery due to my diabetes diagnosis. So, since the surgery, it's been about 55 pounds. Doesn't seem like a lot, but considering I was in a size 20/22 pants and a 3X shirt, I'll take it!!
I love being able to shop anywhere! And yes, my family has been 100% supportive. My husband can't keep his hands to himself - so annoying sometimes!!
All in all, as I said, it was the best decision I've ever made. Although I haven't made my personal goal, I can't believe how I look and feel. Good luck to all of you!

hockeymom1010 got a reaction from lisa2job in Almond Joy Protein Shake - Omg!
I just thought I'd share a new find. I used Blue Diamond Non Sweetened Coconut Almond milk with 2 scoops of Protein Powder, and it tasted just like an Almond Joy!! First shake I've been able to finish post-op. During my liquid diet, my favorite was Peanut Butter, banana and chocolate. Now, the just the thought makes me gag. But not this one!!
