Default Year's anniversary!

It was a year ago that I reached goal and now am quite a bit below that with a BMI in the normal range!

My monthly weigh-in was Saturday.... Last time I weighed this, it was 1974. That's a long time ago! And I've never kept off my weight for a whole year!

This past week, I got up on a ladder and wow, I really felt the difference of being lighter. It was so much easier. Apparently even with a person who is fit (and I was fit even when I was heavier), when you are going against gravity like climbing stairs or climbing a ladder, weight makes a whole lot of difference.

But unlike they say on TV, it's not just "making better food choices" or even exercising but just watching carefully on a daily basis... Even Al Roker who had a gastric bypass, says he needs to count his calories to keep his weight off (and he runs 5 miles, 4 days a week too!).

Hope everyone had a good Labor Day!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Thanks for all your kind wishes....

I didn't do it on my own... I had a very powerful tool (Weight Watchers) and great support from here!

For you WLSers...remember success with surgery is 10 percent the surgery and 90 percent the patient... And as I was losing my weight, so many folks here were amazing inspiration to me!

We're all in this together... whatever the tool, it takes hard work on a daily basis!

Perfesser... I hope I'm still at this weight a decade from now also but so far, it's day by day... a year's the longest I've ever kept off my weight!

Hugs to all!
