Hi, I am new and had open RNY 06-12-2001

February 3, 2004

Hi, I am Deb. I had open RNY around 2 and a half years ago. I started

out at 370 and, well to be honest, I gotr down to 185, and I have

gotten back up to 230. Yes, there I admitted it. But.... I am to

blame, and I am not gonna beat my self up. Long story short, I ate

what ever I wanted and went into denial. But I am through the storm

or identity crisis the surgery brought me to, and am content finally

to be content.

I had my surgery in Dallas, in fact some may know me, and then lots

of things happened, and we moved here to Louisville, KY.

I hestitated to even join another group, as I must have just slam

lost my mind after surgery, and between the job lay off's and the

identity issues, and well, just me... I just wanted to bury my head

in the sand, and run away.

In truth my life is pretty good, and I have learned so much about me,

and today, even in spite of my gain, I am still feeling great, and I

am still able to seek Plastic surgery for the extra skin, I have a

consult date March 12... I now have BC/BS... and I am feeling very

excited about the future.

I have a lot going for me, a great hubby, great kids... And I have

been singing for the last few months and taking vocal coaching. Now,

if I can get to that excercise word... Ha-ha..

At any rate, I could really use some advice on getting back in the

saddle and starting me and the old pouch back under way.

Thanks for listening...

Deb.0:)
