Guest guest Posted September 22, 2000 Report Share Posted September 22, 2000 Hi dear friends! It has been four months since my surgery, and I am doing great. I can't believe the miracles that are occurring in my life. Here are my stats: May 22, 2000 Sept. 22, 2000 weight 280 218 -62 lbs.! waist 47 " 37 " -10 " ! hips 56 " 49 " -7 " ! bust 48DDD 40DD ring 10 8 -2 sizes! watch too tight had to remove a link! neck 18.5 " 16 " clothes 26-28 3X 18-20 1X or XL virtually no exercise Jazzercise 5X / week couldn't walk up stairs can easily climb 4 flights - not out of breath! BP 150/100 110/65 Resting pulse 90+ 62 I can't explain the joy that is in my heart now. I feel better than I have in YEARS!!! All areas of my life have improved now that this albatross has been removed from my neck. Words alone cannot express the benefits I have experienced from this surgery. Please see my story online at www.onhealth.com. It is called " Amy's Story " and documents my journey from decision making to surgery to weekly updates since surgery. I hope it can help others who are trying to decide if this is the answer for them, and for friends and family to understand the pain of morbid obesity. I have three small children, and I know I will be around to enjoy them and their children for years to come. I am healthy, and happy, and look forward to life!!!! Blessings, Amy. _____________________________________________ Amy S.
