When we went to Vegas to support Susy, Dr. R video taped Scott and I for posterity. I give Dr. R credit, he wanted me to talk about my early post surgery issues to everyone. So I did.
Now after all this time and energy how can I be so nutty to think after viewing the video "Damn I look old, my hair is a wreck!" Blah blah blah... I surprised myself with my nitpicking about how I looked. (Lord, woman! Get a grip you are 131 pounds less than you were 15 months ago. Sheesh.)
15 months ago I hid from every camera. Video or otherwise. I could not bear to even look in the mirror for any extended period of time. So the fact that not only allowed myself to be filmed but I watched the video and only cringed a bit is PROGRESS for me. Seriously.

The Current and Sassy Me
My Story
November 22, 2005, I had a gastric bypass surgery called the Mini Gastric Bypass. I weighed 292 pounds. (My highest weight was 311 pounds.) I had struggled with the idea of surgery until I read the facts: that the percentage of people who had over 100 pounds to lose that lost it, and kept it off was nil. I was slowly dying.
I lost 147 pounds and my life has changed in so many ways. I am the person I was meant to be. Recently, I started to forget where I came from and lost track and gained some weight back. But like the Phoenix, I rise from the ashes and renew myself. The Warrior returns. Join me as I battle this war, and win.
If I can do this, so can you!
