I actually worked out off/on a lot when I was heavy' date=' so I think it was all just waiting to emerge. Post-op, I started swimming (with a Master's team) around 2months. I did that about 3 days a week until nearly a year post-op, and then I got bored and started doing spin classes and trail running. I'm now certified as a spin instructor and will start teaching at some point when my normal job isn't crazy :-P working out is certainly different/easier now![/quote']

Great job. You look amazing.

Thanks! I've tried a million different mascaras (expensive and drug store), and I keep going back to L'oreal Voluminous non-waterproof in Blackest Black. It's the ordinary/original bottle that is grey in color. Important to curl the lashes before application (at least for me).

I also found when I started taking Biotin for the Hair loss during weight loss that my lashes saw some of the benefit too. :)

Thanks you SO much for all the kind comments. What a way to start a Wed and read all that! Big smiles!

Also, not to self-promote too much, but I have a YouTube channel documenting my journey (haven't recorded in a long time)... EricaVSGJourney. I always found other people's stories helpful. :-)

Much love to everyone...

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
