3 Years

Nov 27, 2012

Holy Cow!!! Obesity Help just reminded me that November 18th was my 3 year surgiversary. Not sure how I missed the 2 year mark without posting on here but it seems that the further out from surgery I was the less I needed the site that helped me so much in the beginning. My ultimate weight loss goal was to weigh 148, and as of this post I am down to 145, without any plastic surgery. I am at a point where I am on the fence about having the excess skin removed. Part of me wants to so that my body can look the best it ever has but on the flip side I'm just not sure I want another surgery. I honestly never thought I would reach my goal weight without the help of surgery because I hovered at 165-172 for almost a year and then decided in March of this year to pack all my stuff and move back home to Illinois so I could be close to my family. I lost 20lbs after the move, not sure if it was the stress of moving or my metabolism boosted into overtime but I was tickled when I saw the 145 on the scale. I have to say that in the beginning I was filled with mixed emotions and was not so sure I had made the right decision by having this surgery but as of today I have no regrets and only look forward to the new and healthy me.
