Happy Bandiversary to me! Goodbye to those 100 pounds!



Starting weight: 344.4
Current weight: 242.8
Total loss at one year post-op: -101.4 pounds!!

I've lost a small person :)

But I've gained so much more.  Confidence.  Energy.  Health.

I feel like I'm finally truly learning who I am, not just who I was as a morbidly obese woman who wanted to be hidden.

Here is my surgery story, with photos of the incisions included. Sometimes it is hard to look at that first photo on the day of surgery.  To remember what my body looked like at 344 pounds.  But it's important too.  I need to remember, so that I don't ever allow myself to slip back into those habits that got me there.

Today, at one year post op, I am about 66% of the way to my goal.  To those of you who are there, I just want to say how proud of you I am, because I know how hard this journey has been!
