accord4660 2 Posted July 24, 2014 My name is Lawanda. I am 19 months in. I began my journey weighing in at 467 lbs. I now weigh 235. My life began December 11, 2012. I was taking several medications. I now only take my daily Vitamins. I am up every morning by 5 am. Out my door by 6 am. I am walking 4 to 5 miles 5 days a week. I think of my surgery as a blessing from God. Thankful, thst he chose me with this amazing gift. 2 TEXASLADY52 and brannstuff reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TEXASLADY52 264 Posted July 24, 2014 I praise God when I reach your point. The main reason I wanted this surgery was so I could walk again. My knees and joints have worn out carry around all of this weight. I have not been to the mall in about seven years (which is not always a bad thing). I just want to be able to walk and go places with my kids and grandkids......just enjoy life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
