35th High School Reunion...



Recommended Posts

I just had my 35th high school reunion. Wasn't sure I'd go, but folks I wanted to see after many years were going to travel to attend. It was local for me, so I went. I was dreading it and excited at the same time.

What an awesome time it was. What amazed me is that I was the only one who hardly aged ????

But there were a couple of odd things that happened...more than a few people commented that I was slimmer and taller than in high school (slimmer, yes about 25lbs), taller...no. Several were asking about health tips...exercise, etc. (I was the "fat" shy kid you picked on!!!). Many just couldn't believe it was me. (Thanks?)

I only had one close friend there who I told about the vsg. She's thinking of wls, so I'm trying to help her with any questions as she starts this process. Everyone else, I didn't say a word. There was that small part of me that was a little satisfied looking half decent at a class reunion.

I also know that if this was a year or more ago I wouldn't have been wandering in at 4am afterwards. So much energy now...VSG has given me my life back.

Oh, and if here's anyone here from my class...shhhh!???? (I'm on the left...and that's Water....????)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
