Still around...

Wow, it's been a really, really long time since I've blogged on here. Guess it's called complacency. When you're comfortable with your weight and not struggling like I did so many times in the past, I suppose you don't really focus on things like weight loss.

It's been more than two years since I had my WLS, and I'm happy to say that I'm still down about 90 pounds. I did put back a few of the initial pounds that I've lost, but I guess that's all due to my lack of focus and with my body just basically figuring out where it's supposed to be. I'm not as active as I'd like to be, but with my busy schedule, I do tend to be up and about a lot.

I would like to focus on being more active - taking walks in the evenings, lifting some light weights, and taking a few laps around our pool. It will be easier now that summer is here and I've graduated from grad school (whoopie!).

I guess that I'd like to acknowledge once again what a wonderful decision it was to have the WLS and change my life. I can't imagine going back to the insecure person that I was before. I am so grateful to have this new lease on life, and promise myself - and my kids - that I won't ever go back!

Until next time, I wish you all the best of luck in your endeavors and if WLS is something you are considering, I would highly recommend that you do your research and know the positives and negatives of this wonderful medical tool!
