Lovinlife48 34 Posted May 16, 2015 This past year and a half have bee amazing . It feels good to fit on the Rollercoaster with my daughter. It's great to ride the helicopter with my husband and not worry about the weight limit it's absolutely wonderful to be able to do cardio for a full hour without feeling like I'm about to pass out. This choice was the best choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sassy14 178 Posted May 16, 2015 25 months post RNY and 135 lbs gone means I am able to fully participate in life and am no longer controlled by food. I eat healthy and well and if I eat something sweet, Like a thin person, I enjoy a few bites and am satisfied. This is the best thing I could have done. Only wish I had done it years ago!

Djmohr 6,965 Posted May 16, 2015 I am now able to sleep without using bi pap! Woot woot! I have lost 97 lbs in 7 short months and my stick thin sister n law offered me some of her clothing yesterday. She really believes they would fit me! I said what? You must be crazy, you tiny little clothes will never fit me. I am looking forward to seeing if they will but the most important thing is that others are seeing the significant change to my body. I can workout for an hour a day and I feel so fantastic afterwards. That is a very cool feeling! The most important wins are, my diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, reflux and stage 3 kidney disease are all in remission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mommabird 367 Posted May 16, 2015 RNY stands for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. NSV stands for Non scale Victory, such as smaller clothes, off meds, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
