2 YR Surgiversary... Rollar Coaster of a Life... PICS
Well hello my fellow RNY'ers and other WLS peeps its been awhile since I've posted but I always visit the boards everyday to keep me in check!!!
2014 have been one ROLLAR COASTER OF A LIFE!!! From being emotional happy to being depressed everyday... having marriage issues... having life threatening complications that resulted in a two week stay in the hospital to sometimes finding myself drinking alcohol to cope. Everything have come full force which I had felt like I was about to have a break down.
2014 was just too much for me to handle. Thinking to myself, "I was happier when I was heavier" or "Life can not get any worse!" Sometimes I wanted to run away from my life existense in Indy back to home... CHICAGO!!! Boy how I miss my family friends and old job. I had it made there!
Anywho, I am taking it one day at a time concentrating on making ME happy... putting ME first for a change. I do admit, I have lost myself in my so call marriage but finding ME again! So do not worry, I am getting it together!
Looking forward to making 2015 my best year yet!!!! I went from me weighing 309 to 147, wearing size 7/8 in JUNIORS, small in tops!!!! I would have never thought in a million years I would be this small.... I'm ECSTATIC!!!!
Me now at goal which I had surpassed that!!!!
Thank you for listening!!!
Congratulations!!! Your hard work has paid off, you look amazing :) Here's to a happy and healthy 2015 :)

Kenyatta! WELCOME BACK! I have missed you girl! I am glad to hear that you seem to be over the hump and you are focusing on you. I hope you don't ever feel like the surgery was a mistake - look at how healthy you are! Think of how hard your heart and joints had to work and now you are so strong and can accomplish so much! I am sorry 2014 was so tough but onward and upward. I know you can get through difficult times - you have inspired me since I joined OH - so focus on being happy and healthy and post more often! Sending you hugs from DC :)
