My 10 year Anniversary
Jun 29, 2010
Wow, I can't believe it's been 10 years on July 5th, 2010 since my gastric bypass surgery. I did failed at my Feb 2010 previously posted goal, I got a frozen shoulder and can not exercise too much though it is getting better. I would like to lose another 20 pounds before the fall. There is no reason I can't do that because I have a wonderful organic garden growing.
My girlfriend Val, just had the Sleeve surgery done four days ago and she is doing great. I will encourage her to post some before pics soon. <3

Yes, I am up for it. I have put on my normal 10+ holiday pounds. I had my surgery July 2000. I went from 265 to 155. I now weigh 175. It is time to get to my goal of 150. I have to lose 25 pounds and I think I can do it by Feb 28th, 2010. I am bad about exercising and I have no excuse, I work at a YMCA. I get personal training sessions for $22.50 per hour (half price). I have a plan...
-the first. two weeks of January- I will get used to working out again and build up some tolerance, while getting my meals on track.
-Jan. 15th- I talk to a personal trainer (Sue Massi) and get her help.
-I will work up to 3 personal training sessions per week until I lose 25 pound.
I can do this!!! I need a pen pal!

I had my weight loss surgery in July 2000. I weighed in at 267 the morning of surgery. I am so happy that I did this! Weight loss surgery made me feel alive again. I have lost 115lbs. I just have one major problem, too much skin. I keep getting chaffed skin. I hate being sore. It is time to have a Panniculectomy! I have a doctors appt. March 29st. Wish me luck!

Gosh, what a wonderful Dr. "V" is, he is so kind and comforting.
We have a scheduled date for my "Panni", it's June 27th. I am a little scared, but I am ready for it. I have lived with the chaffing long enough. I would love to hear from someone who has had this surgery by Dr. V. My insurance as agreed to only pay for the hospital. I wrote a letter today, appealing their decision. I am hoping that they will also pick up Dr."V" expense.
