Today I completed my first race called warrior dash. Let me tell you I'm an introvert and I think I am slowly come out if that and I really am beginning to feel fearless towards what others think of me. I did this race I climbed over hurdles under bob wire in the mud pit slid down a man mad Water slide over the end if the slide to a mud slide I climbed a rope over the wall I trekked through the forest past a golf course upshot steep ski hills walk the plank climb a man made climbing wall jumped fire and fell trying to throw mud at my husband at the finish line and guess what I was not fast I walked most of it and I survived 5 k of steep hills and all the above. Last year before surgery I was so shy I wouldn't even walk in the mall I always felt people where watching me and judging . Today I could careless I am me and I love me. Last year I could hardly walk for two inured with out pain in my feet.today I can walk and not get tired. 101lbs gone forever and I am thankful for my ryn as it has given me my life back but better and no worried. Whoop whoop I i survived . I enjoy my life and I enjoy being me. Pictures are in my photos of today . Thank you for your support everyone . You people are wonderful

Isn't it a great feeling!!! I love my new life to. Everyday I am lucky to be alive! I am working towards life dreams and making them come true. Tonight as I was working I drove past the hospital that did my surgery. I remembered what it was like those first few days, weeks and months. The feeling of regret for doing this to my body. I sit here today loving every minute of it. I even got a high five from a handsome guy who noticed my weight loss today.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
