1 Year, 165lbs lost!~!~! Quick Crazy update

I had R-N-Y Gastric Bypass on 3/15/10 and it set the story for the last year. I was extremely unhappy and dying at 430lbs at 22 years old and decided to change my life once and for all. 1 year later 165lbs lost and the rest is still unwritten. I am now extremely much more active. I do a lot of dance---especially Zumba. I still really struggle with eating. My advice for those starting out: The relationship you have with food, and your bad eating habits do not miraculously go away. A much better update to come. Sorry for the wind.

@MegaMrBeautiful Not really sure what your intentions were leaving you comment!!! Good for you that you aren't fat! I've lost 170lbs. I have struggled with my weight my entire life, so seeing my collar bones, something you take for granted, is something that means a lot to me, because I've worked hard. I hope you continue to live a great life and are blessed :)

Now for the teeth....

@robot720 I know, I know. I was suppose to get braces many years ago and my parents decided against it. Hopefully one of these days!

@sigridandbilly There's a simple fix to your annoyance- stop watching. Sure, I have more weight to lose, absolutely, however losing 165lbs in a year, I have A LOT to be happy about. Happy that my life is changing, that I am no longer a prisoner to my own body. Happy that My health has greatly increased. Etc. There is always something to be happy about in life. Many blessings to you.

I don't think you're acting dramatic or conceited at all, you're simply happier and more confident! Is that a crime??? lol Holy cow, heaven forbid that you act happier and more bubbly because you've lost weight, geez. Ignore the negative comments and don't let them break your spirit!

You look great! I have a ways to go, almost 100 lbs gone after 1 yr. I'm at 238-239 and my surgeon staff said 195 goal but I'd like to go further than that.
