I started the process in 2007. I was told to get counseling for the relationship i was in or leave it. I chose to get counseling. after a long 5 years of hell i decided to start the process again. It took me 3 more years to finally get my life back together and lose the weight i needed. Ups and downs are no joke when it comes to losing weight for me. I am now post op and have lost 60lbs total. I had surgery about 7 weeks ago and have lost 35 lbs or so. Totally worth it. I still think im dreaming and that I havent actually done it yet. All is well so far.

Welcome to the group! You took the long way around, but all that matters is you got here. Congrats on your very successful weight loss. The best is yet to be!

Welcome and congratulations.
