JustJenn 542 Posted November 13, 2012 Today I am 100 lighter than the day my journey started in January of this year. That day I was 389 and so embarrassed of myself and how I got there. Even then I wasn't sure if RNY was for me (embarrassed but still in denial!!) But as it was necessary for me to get healthy I am so grateful for the chance at life it has given me. I am 289lbs today! 100lbs since January 70lbs since surgery. I still have a ways to go but I am soo happy to be doing this for me:) Blessed for this chance .::SurgeryDate 7/25/12::. 8 Shonabear, LA GP, Uniqueladybug and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
