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!

Okay, so it has taken me some time to get this last 40 or so pounds off. I don't really care how long, because I stood on the scale today and saw the number 149!! WHOO HOOO! 143 pounds lost as of this morning. DAMMNNN. I have lost a whole person! My original goal was to weigh 142 pounds. Thats seven pounds away. I am going to shoot for my 2 year anniversary in November for that.
