1 year ago anniversary today!

It has been 1 year since I laid down on that cold table, looked into Dr. Reyes face and said "Remember, I have two small children!" He smiled and said "You'll see them again, soon. Remember, you are doing this for them, too!" I am now 115 lbs. lighter, and although I have more weight I need to lose, I am happy where I am. Thanks to everyone on this messageboard who stuck with me through it all (including nasal surgery four months after the GB!!!) You are all BIG LOSERS!!!!!!: ) Love, Lou Ann

Congratulations Lou Ann! You look wonderful! Tracy B 328/162/150

Oh Lou Ann.... I remember how nervous you were and I am so proud of you... not only did you make it through this like a champ but you've helped your husband through it too! GIRL YOU ROCK MY WORLD!!!!
