Guest guest Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Hi Bill, I had my surgery a couple days after my 28th Birthday. Still young! : ) It's by far the best thing I could have done for myself. Definitely scary going in to it. Now I have found my New Normal lifestyle and I am enjoying seeing less of myself daily. So far, I can fit in booths when we go out to eat, Movie seats are comfortable (Sorta except my butt gets sore from sitting after awhile), Life is becoming easier to live. REALLY LIVE! I went to a carnival with my Nephew and we went on a couple rides together. It was so nice not having to worry about if the safety devices would fit on me. Back seat-seat belts fit now! There are so many things that have changed for the better since the surgery. For me the best thing so far is seeing the look on my Husband's face when he sees me walking out of my office, in a store, or wherever we are. He is always doing double takes. It's very fun to be the girl that turns his head. So, I am not real sure what information you are looking for, but I hope this helped. Please feel free to ask specific questions, I'd be happy to answer. Blessings, and good luck on the quest for weight loss.
