Hello all amazing people! I agree with everyone that it has taken some time to get on the new site. I just recently became a resident of Onederland! Which is amazingly exciting for me! Been through one boyfriend and on to the next! Below is a picture taken at a formal in December with a few of my best friends from high school. I hope everyone is doing AMAZING!

1. Have been dating a wonderful guy for about a month now. Absolutely insane to me! 2. We went on a roadtrip to Washington DC this past weekend because some of his friends were running the marine corps marathon. I was able to walk around the city without complaint. AND it has reaffirmed that my ultimate goal is to run a marathon. The surgery has not made me happier. My decision that I was worth it has made me happier!

I have had this conversation with my mom several times that I know how horrible I felt physically before surgery and sometimes I wonder what took me so long to make I this decision (I'm only 34 but have been obese pretty much my entire Adult life) I wonder if people feel the way that I felt, that they weren't worth feeling any better. Sometimes I want to say "you don't have to feel like sh*t all the time" there are options. But then I remember that I had to come to this place on my own and so does everyone else. Everyone is a full and whole person no matter their weight! HW 344, DOS 320, Surgery Date 2/20/13, CW 229 Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

I danced until I was 14 years old when I quit because I was tired of being the fat girl dancing. Tonight I tried Zumba for the first time and did FANTASTIC. It was so great to be dancing again and not feel like I was going to die! HW 344, DOS 320, Surgery Date 2/20/13, CW 229 Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

I bought THESE shoes today and can actually walk in them without feeling like a weeble. [ATTACH]4874[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]4874[/ATTACH]

I had my first glass of wine about 3 months out. Now 6 months out I have a glass every few weeks. One and done is what I like to call it because I would be sick on the floor on more than one. One thing I didn't think about preop is that alcohol is pretty much all sugar so you don't just have the alcohol but the sugar too. One glass I am feeling good, two (I tried once) and not only am I drunk but sugar overload kicks in. HW 344, DOS 320, Surgery Date 2/20/13, CW 236 Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

My experience was every day was different. Six months out there are still things that were wonderful one day and horrible the next. It sucks to be in that process, but hoping you better ASAP. HW 344, DOS 320, Surgery Date 2/20/13, CW 236 Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

Hey everyone...I developed a UTI last week and my doctor prescribed antibiotics on Friday evening, it is now Monday and I have spent the last 3 days in bed. I feel better UTI wise but I was wondering if any of you have been on antibiotics since surgery and had them just knock you down? I have my 6 month with the surgeon tomorrow morning so I am going to talk to him but I have scoured the board and haven't found anything similar?
