Greetings!

  

 First let me start out by introducing myself. My Name is Summer. (HI!!) I am a mother of 2 teenagers. My oldest Being my 15 year old son Vincent (Vinny) and my newly teen aged daughter Santana who just turned 13 in Sept. I also have Nick who is 11 and last but not least my biggest kid, My husband James..lol!!

   I somewhat consider myself new to blogging even though this is not my first blog. I have (or had) another blog that I lost my password to and have been unable to recover it. So out with the old and in with the new. 

With my old blog I started out just blogging about anything and everything I found interesting, recipes, crafts, updates or just wanted to share about my family  that I felt like sharing. That is until the day I decided to change my life forever.

In January of 2013 I decided to take the bull by the horns and turn my life around for the better. It was brought to my attention by my Doctor that I was a prime candidate for Gastric bypass surgery. Not only was I going to be able to change my weight but along with that came changes is eating, exercising, it even changed how I felt emotionally about not only myself but my family. 

   I'm starting this blog in hopes to not only share what I have been through and continue to do daily. But also to let others see that living with Gastric bypass surgery is not all rainbows and butterflies it  has is ups and downs and is not just a get out of jail free card. You have to change in order to reep the full benefits that leads to that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
