Lots has happened since my last post. I did the surgery and have lost a bit over 100 lbs. For me, bariatric surgery ranks right up there with my Liberty season tickets as one of the best things I've ever done for myself. It's amazing how much energy I have, and I am actually starting to pump more weight than before the surgery. I'm able to butterfly (poorly, but before it was not at all), and can actually run for a bus without wondering if I'm going to have a heart attack.
Don't know if it was increased confidence or God trying to tell me something, but I ended up leaving my job working in computers in a law firm, and am now the executive director of a small nonprofit. I've returned to the world of providing housing and supportive services to people living with HIV/AIDS, this time with a couple of other additional populations.
Next week I'm headed back to CR for the first time in about 20 years. I'm SOOO excited! Can't wait to see Dani, and to meet his kids. Last time I was there he was dating Sylvia; now their oldest kid is in law school!!!!
And I'm heading back to Egypt. Israel, and Jordan in November. More to come...
