ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

hey everyone...yesterday was my one year anniversary...crazy isn't it???? i still can't believe that it's been a year since my surgery...it's interesting to see what has changed over the past year in my life...my life has changed for the best and maybe for the worst. i have made new friends and have lost friends...family has changed hopefully for the best...and my personal life has changed for ever...Dave is in my life and I hope that he never leaves...but i bet you all are wondering how much i've lost...well as of yesterday I weighed 178 pounds!!!!!!!!!! that's over 137 pounds lost since my highest weight of 315 pounds...that means i've lost over 122 pounds since surgery....that's great in my book...my doctor says that my goal should be anywhere between 150-165 pounds...and i hope that possibly within the next year i could get down to somewhere in that area...because that would be great...i currently wear a size medium to large t-shirt (depends on brand) and currently have been transitioning between a 11-12 to 14-16 size jeans...(depends on brand) but coming from an xxl t-shirt and a size 24-26 pant...i wouldn't change anything...life has changed and i don't ever want to go back to where I was in life...I have never been happier and I have never felt better...thanks to everyone who has been there and who has helped over the past year....thanks everyone I love you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
