4 Year Surgiversary

So here I am, amost 4 years out from gastric bypass surgery. Life has been interesting to say the least. I was at my lowest weight in 2015 but I was also in the midst of my alcohol problem. Since I became sober, I had gained 45 pounds back from the original weight I lost. I lost 19 pounds of the regain. I have to keep telling myself that at least I am not back to my original pre-surgery weight. My goal is to continue being sober and slowly work on the weight loss. Here are the measurement comparisons for the past 4 years:

	2013	2014	2015	2017
Right Arm	17	11	12	13
Left Arm	18	11	12	12
Chest	59	41	40	43
Waist	53.5	37	41	44
Right Leg	31	20.5	23	23
Left Leg	32	20	23	23
Right Calf	19	14	16	15.75
Left Calf	18.5	14	16	15.75
Current Weight	315	185	185	211
Current Height	5'5"	5'5"	5'5"	5'5"
Current Size	26	12	12	14/16

I don't have much to say that I haven't said in years past. Except that even if you do have regain, all hope is not lost. You can lose it. It may not be quickly, but then again like I have always said you didn't get fat overnight!
