Two year anniversary today.

  • Popular Post

It is two years today that I had WLS. I have been plunged into a bit of a fog over the whole thought of it. I know since I had this life changing surgery that I am no longer the person I was before in any way. I think completely different. Believe things differently and look completely different as well.

I found out yesterday that I will have my 17th surgery on Nov. 27 to repair part of the bedsore scar. So it continues. That is one of the reasons for distress. But it is not all bad. There are some pretty amazing things I have learned about myself and experienced through this journey until now. I know myself better and have a lot more energy then before. I know that a lot of you know parts of my story and know that I would do it all again in a second if it meant that I would be the person I am now.

I have met some very wonderful people on this forum and it would take pages to list them all. Each shared in my journey thus far and I thank you for your encouragement and help when I needed it. Could not have gotten this far with out all of you.

I only dreamed of a time that I would weigh this much and be so happy with it.

Another year starts tomorrow and the continued fight for health and well being is ahead of me. I wish all of you the same outcome.

I just can't believe it..TWO YEARS since I told them to get this show on the road..... :)
