proudgrammy still proud 3 yr surgiversary

[ProudGrammy 8,322]

who would have thought??

3 years ago, a scared little (big) rabbit had WLS

i was scared about the unknown - what to expect in my future

i crept down 105 lbs/GOAL in one year

past two years fluctuating/maintaining 3-5 lbs

at times i have weighed a "little" more

honesty, confession is good for the sole

i'm not perfect, welllll actually

i do graze sometimes

or eat more than i should during the day

i don't enjoy not drinking while eating

i don't always get my 64 oz of Water

i don't exercise

but............

i don't weigh 235 lbs anymore

many wonderful things have been going on in my new life

my health is wonderful

this "sexy at 60" looks pretty HOT!!

we built a beautiful new house last year but.............

I don't hide in the house anymore

i find reasons to leave the house

drive here there and everywhere

love running errands

of course clothes shopping toooooo!!!

I do volunteer work

(I would never have put myself "out" amongst people pre WLS)

my confidence, happiness have gone through the roof

many other things i can't think of

(my memory hasn't improved )

with the "assistance" of the sleeve - my new world is amazing

that is my story and i'm stick' to it!!!

my wishes/thought/hopes

that everyone in the "world"/especially my fellow sleevers

be as happy as i am today - for the rest of your healthier, happier, longer, life

congrats to me
