Just thought I'd check in
Nov 11, 2015
I haven't been here in a while. I've been busy with all sorts of stuff in my life. But I thought I'd check in because three days ago was my six year surgiversary.
At six years post op, I am currently five pounds above my goal weight, and quite happy with that. I'm much more physically active than I was before. I typically hike three to five miles a day with my dog. My vitamin levels are great and my acupuncturist says I am one of the healthiest people she knows.
A couple years ago, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and that has been a challenge. Especially not being able to take NSAIDS. But being more active helps a lot. I can't imagine how painful and difficult this would be if I was still 130 lbs overweight!
I hope everyone else is doing well.
