Can you believe it has been 6 months???

Yesterday was my 6 month anniversary for my surgery. I can't believe that it has been that long. Amazing. I continue to feel great. I have lost 122lbs as of date. I had a Doctors appointment yesterday and they declared my surgery a Success. My fear is that will stay a success???

I met 2 people yesterday very randomly who both had the surgery. One at the Clinic, I was walking out of my appointment and I saw my surgeon talking to a patient that was very scared and crying. I talked to her and she told me she was 4 weeks post-op and feeling awful. I promised her that it would get better. I knew exactly how she was feeling and understood completely. The second person I met was at Acacia Country Club. He is a friend of my sisters, he is 4 years post op. He lost of total of 150lbs and has gained 20lbs back. He gave me many suggestions on how to stay on track.

My second journey for the week was attempting to buy a bathing suit!!!! What a challenge. For the past number of years, I wore that ugliest suit because it fit and only wore it at Aunt Frans (the lovely blue and black one in the photos). So this year with my weight loss, I am ready for the pool. Very scared but ready. I found a suit and had to have Robin taken the straps because I officially have no boobs. I will keep you posted on the pool situation.

I have had many people tell me that they continue to read my blog. Please drop me an email and let me know you are out there - dawn517@sbcglobal.net

That's it for now, I hope you are all well. Love to all.
