Revitalized!!

The further out I get from my surgery, the more I realize I need the support. I am at goal and I want to stay at goal. It's easier to snack and not stick with "the program" the further out I get.

The past month or so I have been more actively reaching out. It feels good. Starting the Facebook WLS fan page is something I am taking very seriously and I really want it to be something inspirational and supportive for other WLS patients. I can't promise I will be around here more, I know I don't post much, but I am going to be more pro-active in getting involved in helping others along with their journey and seeking support as I continue my journey.

Yesterday was my 2 year post-op check-up. Wow, two years. Time really does fly. So much has happened. To sum it up though, I am at goal - 145 - I did dip as low as 139 (for one day) however I am comfortable sticking between 140-145 lbs. This is something I will be striving to maintain.

I had one deficiency and one borderline - my ferritin was deficient and my vitamin D was borderline. I need to be more diligent at getting in ALL my supplements EVERYDAY. This is not something I didn't know I had to do, but am afraid to say I had just been slackin'.

The check up was kinda like a WLS 101 refresher. It put me in a positive frame of mind - determined to continue the success this surgery has given me.
