3.5 yrs later

Jul 27, 2011

It has been 3.5 years since my surgery.  I lost a total of 192 pounds.  I have maintained my current weight for 2 plus years now.  It feels good to have maintained a healthy weight that long.  Most of my life I spent gaining weight, not maintaining. 

I had my first of 3 plastic surgeries in December of 2009.  I did the tummy tuck with full body lift.  WOW do I love the results..  This winter I want to have my thighs done; lastely, I will do the breast and arms.  Can;t believe I turned out so vain.  :)

So since my surgery things I have done: lost 192 pounds, sold my home, got a divorce, became a grandma, adopted my grandson (long story but I am so totally happy it just weigh me down emotionally), completed my masters program, took a new job, started dating. 

Guess it has been a very busy 3.5 years.  Sometimes it helps to feel some accomplishment by making a list of what you have done.

I don't visit this site as much as I did the first year.  The first 6 months it was my lifeline and sanity.  Now I just pop in to check on friends. 

I am thankful I made the decision I did to have surgery.  Everyday I feel an overwhelming happy feeling, find energy to go go go, and desire to experience new things.  Life is great!

Me :)
