Three Year Update

[nmck 68]

I find your post VERY encouraging, so thank you for sharing your struggles! As for the last 10-15 pounds of baby weight, I think you are doing a GREAT job being so close to your goal when she is only 4 months old. remember quality sleep is a factor in your ability to lose weight and the chances are you're not sleeping as well as you did before. You're really doing great.

So, first off...

YOU.

LOOK.

AMAZEBALLS!!!!!

Seriously, so beautiful! Congrats on 3 years post-op!

Also, I am so, so glad to see someone sharing their story about working on your own personal causes for overeating and emphasizing how important it is to deal with the psychological component of it. I realized recently that aside from my weight (or perhaps tangled up in it), I have many, many self-confidence and men issues that must be addressed if this surgery is going to be a true success. I have started therapy and am on my way to gaining understanding of myself while, come August 19th, losing the weight! Thanks again for sharing your story, your lovely photos, and for being so honest. <3

Cheri, you look stunning! You are an inspiration to so many sleevers, not just because of your incredible success, but also because of your willingness to share not just your personal triumphs, but also your struggles.

You once again, very eloquently, put to post what I'm sure so many of us feel about ourselves and our experiences. Thank you so much for sharing. It does keep things in persepective and remind us all that its a journey, and a lifelong commitment. I know you don't look for the accolades, but I'm gonna! Thank you, you've become a voice of reason, guidance and comfort to the lot of us that came after.

Congratulations on a happy, healthy you!

You look stunning and your baby girl is beautiful! Everything you said is SO true, although I'm far from goal. This has been far more of a psychological process than I had anticipated.
