On June 2005, I had the gastric bypass weighing at 220-lbs at a size 22/4x. I then had plastic surgery done on Nov2006 for a tummy tuck and inner thigh lift. It was an 9 hour surgery and my plastic surgeon removed 22-lbs. I'm currently weighing in at 150 at a size 10. I can't even remember ever weighing at 150. It was 18 years ago when I weighed at 170-lbs. and continued to put on the pounds reaching the top weight of 260-lbs. Being a single mom at 42 years old with a 9 years old son...I finally realized how important it is to be healthy and enjoy life to its fullest. Now, for me...the truth is called "PORTION CONTROL." and learning to take it "ONE DAY AT A TIME."
Now, I have 25-30 lbs. to lose. I would like to be weighing in at 125-130. It is a lot of hard work...trying not to over eat. I love food...all kinds: I love my Filipino food, including Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, Italian, Korean, American...to rice, pastas and bread. I didn't eat because of emotional or stress issues. I just LOVE FOOD.
