Just a quick note to all my fellow March surgery buddies. This year has gone by so quickly. It seems like just yesterday we were all consoling each other with first going thru the pre-surgical process, the never ending appointments, the waiting for approval, the pre-surgical liquid diets, protein shakes, pains, post-surgical food issues, ect...... We're mostly 9 months in and I for one have had such a great year. I feel awesome and have had no real complications to complain about. I've come to terms with food and my emotion, they are no longer dependent on each other which is a huge milestone. If I'm sad, happy, nervous or whatever I've learned how to work thru it, not eat thru it. Life is so fun and exciting again, my energy level is off the charts. So to each and every one of you, I hope that you're doing as well as I am. I hope you've learned to deal with your new self and that life is everything it should be for everyone.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.

Happy New Year to you! I'm so looking forward to my year anniversary. I can't believe how quickly time has gone by. Glad you're doing well!

And you - Holy cow, 139 lbs - You have to feel awesome!!! I can't believe how much I've lost and how much life I've recaptured. This has been by far the best year I've had in a long time.

Here's to a future of fun, health and LIVING!!!!
