Met a major goal today!

[Sharonisshrinking 82]

One of my biggest goals in having a VSG was to be more "present" in my kid's lives. Because of my weight, I was unable to attend many school activities. Well today, at 92 pounds down since pre op on 10/4/12, I went with my son on his field trip. It was a TON of walking and at times I was out of breath, but, I did it!

I bet your son's heart was beaming having you there. Well done.

love your name!!!!

your weight loss is great, bet you are continually feeling better, healthier and happier

good for you

what a wonderful feeling, being able to be with son on a field trip for the 1rst time

this NSV for many is what its all about - being around for our kids, enjoying them - them enjoying you, able to have mom or dad around walking, running, participating with them

being healthy and happy for your longer life - but for them to see and be proud of YOUR new life too!!!!

kudos

keep up the good work

Pleased for you! I always loved to see the parents with their own kids on field trips! I'm sure your son was pleased too!!!

He was thrilled. I was the only parent volunteer for his class so it was special. I'm equally impressed that I'm not that sore today. Thank God I took a hot bath last night!

My next goal is to lose enough to get on rides with him this summer. About 44 pounds should do it.
