You guys will do great too. I was a baby too... Cried right up until they put me

Out lol. Funny now but I can empathize with you guys cause I was there. Before you know it it will be over and six months from now you will look back and be grateful! Good luck to you both!

I'm doing very well!! Just finished my first 12 hours a day 7 day a week work shift. I was very tired the first couple days but I made it through and I'm down 10 pounds. :)

After a long absence I decided to come back and make a very quick post here... I celebrated my 2nd surgeversary a week or so ago. I started out at I think around 260 as my pre-op weight. Within shortly after a year I reached and exceeded my ideal weight of around 150-155... For the past year I have been successfully maintaining my weight... It fluctuates between 137 and 143, never below or above really. Have been very active and I still strictly adhere to a lifestyle of no to very low-carb eating habit with lots of Protein. I take my daily Vitamin supplements; do anywhere between 10-20 minutes of light to moderate cardio (nothing fancy). Try to take daily walks (I'm in a wheelchair, so I guess it'd be rolls?!). This was one of the best things I ever did for myself in my life. Oh and since we’re all adults here... let it suffice to say that the sex life has improved TREMENDOUSLY!!! OMG!

Just stay positive and try to focus on the light at the end of the tunnel. Watch what you eat, when you eat, and how you eat it. Remember, just because you can have the cake and eat it too, you shouldn’t!

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
