Hello OH Friends! I am on a journey to becoming a healthier me. I am a 29 year old female. I has surgery at 28 years old as of January 26th 2010. I had some complications after my surgery where my intestines twisted and caused me to have a hernia which was removed. I was released from RNY that Thursday and was back in the emergency room on Friday where I stayed about a week in the hospital. Had some more complications from the hernia which caused me to have a surgery in mid March. Thank God for protecting his child and keeping his angels all around me. I am doing much better and can't believe that is has been 9 months already. Time moves so fast but it has been a wonderful journey. I am still learning about foods the good and bad. I am now at a point where I have been at a stall for about 3 weeks now. I fluctuate between 247-251 pds. I would like to lose about 20 more pounds and by next year have some reconstructive surgery. I know if this comes off then I would weigh less than I do now. I find myself now so food conscience which is not a bad thing. My biggest fear is gaining the weight back and I don't want to go back. I now have started exercising 3-4 days a week twice a day. I have been big for so long that I just don't want to make any errors so I study foods that I eat to see what causes my stalls and what allows the scale to start going down. I am here to meet people that are dealing with weight issues because I feel support is the key to keeping this weight off.
