One year anniversary

Today is my one year anniversary (June 28) of my weight loss surgery. Yes, I am a gastric sleeve weight loss patient and I have NO regrets. I needed to do something because I was dying. There was a sense of urgency due to Obstructive sleep apnea, high blood pressure and bad knees. I am happy to report that I no longer suffer from these illnesses that were brought on by obesity. My surgery, by one of the best surgeons in Houston, Dr. Ken Hollis was a blessing from God. I am so amazed how God used him and He certainly gets the glory. I walked almost daily after the surgery until recently when I joined 24 Hour Fitness June 1. I now have enough energy to workout everyday and I love it. I'm looking for a personal trainer to help me go where I've never gone before. Yes, I want to be softly ripped! I know some frown upon surgery and say it's cheating. Well, cheating saved my life! I did what worked for me at over 40. I hope my testimony is encouragement for someone else. We am still in the struggle but no longer struggling.

Praise God...He is Awesome!

Well done, beautiful lady!

Wow you look great!! I am so ready for my time to come. I heard negative comments too. The top one was if God wanted you smaller you would be that way. I'm doing this for me to be healthy and happy and can't wait to get to where you at!

Look great!

I believe God presents us with opportunities when we need them. Go for it in faith. He brought you to this point, He will see it through!

You look absolutely amazing! Good job!
