A woman's trials and triumphs before, during, and after gastric bypass.

A Year and 2 Months Later
Well, I've been kicking it at Fitness Bootcamp for quite a few months. I've noticed that I've had inches dropping...I have especially seen this difference in the chest area. I feel so much better than I did before I had surgery. I have energy and can keep up with the kiddos! ...heck I wear them out.

8 & 1/2 Month Update
Well, here I am 8 1/2 mos. later...
Ask me if I would do this again and I would answer YES!
I have loved the milestones I've hit on my journey to a healthier me...
Sitting with my legs crossed
Sitting indian style in my chair
Being able to receive an amazingly close hug from my husband
Having more energy
Not having my gut smashed into a table at a restaurant
Feeling full
Sitting comfortably in stadium settings
Shopping at Cato in the non-Plus size area
Shopping at all stores in the smaller area
Getting a new wedding ring b/c I went from a 9 to a 7
Being able to keep up with my kids
Being able to walk in the mall for as long as I want...not as long as my body wants me too
Being able to stay awake on long trips
Bending over and tying my shoes without grunting
I can say that I am glaring at my goal weight...45 more lbs and I'll be at the weight I was in high school.
Right now, I'm glaring at the scale and can see 205! That means I've lost a total of 130 lbs! Now I've still got my ghetto booty but I can really tell a difference when I pull out my pictures! ...not to mention when I step in my clothes. I can wear a 16 in jeans and a medium shirt! I still am very conscientious of my arms but who isn't!?
A few months ago I posted a picture of me in a pair of pants I was wearing pre-op, only this time, I was fitting into one leg. I'll post it tonight, as well as pre-op and post-op photos! Afterall, a picture is worth 1,000 words!
