Three months ago I was walking the halls after surgery.  What a wild ride this has been!  I am feeling very grateful today.  I think this is the first Christmas I have ever spent not being obsessed with food in one way or another (binging or starving).  it was amazing.  I think I have lost about 65 pounds and four or five dress sizes.  but I have gained way more than that, to spend a big food holiday not thinking about food and instead thinking about my family was pretty wonderful.  I am sure there will be lots of challenges down the line but for this moment, I feel pretty great!  Merry Christmas!

Its a great feeling to have reclaimed your life, isn't it? So crazy that we let something like food control us for so long. No more! Merry Christmas!

I really enjoyed and appreciated my first post op Christmas too. I was able to get up this morning and walk 3 miles and still breathe when I was done! 6 months ago I could barely walk 15 minutes at a slow pace-even then I felt like I was dying. It felt great to eat a small amount of healthy food and be satisfied. I am so thankful for my surgery!
