My birthday gift to me



Recommended Posts

A year ago, I was getting ready for gastric sleeve surgery. I was tired, fat and unhealthy. I had high blood pressure, high cholesterol and was in insulin dependent diabetic. I was on antidepressants.

January 9, 2018 was the day my life changed. And now I’m LIVING!

i work out 5-6 days per week, I love kickboxing! I’m down nearly 100 lbs and I feel younger than ever. I’m off all medication and according to my lab work, I’m a whole new woman.

For those of you who are considered sugery, DO IT! Be ready to change everything about your current life. My biggest obstacle has been my brain. Changing the way I think about life. About food. About who i have in my life.

I found my life. My value. Find yours!!

Brace yourself 🌏Frustra8's gonna reduce herself to glory, 110 pounds down from High Weight,maybe 80-85 to go, Carlab did it, don't say i can't, I'm red-headed too, never did gray, if I don't go bald first I can be marching and kicking with the best of them. Carlab, Auntie Frustr8 is coming down the road!🎰🚘

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
