5 Mos Out
Mar 30, 2010
Well it has been 5 months out and I am 66.2 pounds down.I am starting to feel so much lighter.It's a nice feeling to go for a walk and not hurt or sweat like you just ran a marathon.My kids are starting to notice I am more active and get down and play with them.I am looking forward to the summer and being able to enjoy my kids at play and not from the sideline also I can wear nice summer clothes instead of big old t-shirts and shorts.I will keep intouch but stay positive to all of you that are waiting for this surgery because it's all worth it.

Mirror
Jan 17, 2010
Well almost 3 months out 45 pounds down,I am still hesitant to look at myself in the mirror and to get my picture taken but I looked in the mirror yesterday and notice that I wasn't so lumpy anymore for the first time looking in the mirror I smiled,I can't remeber the last time I looked in the mirror and smiled. P.S.I can even cross my legs now,it's my favourite thing to do and it's sooo comfortable.
