New Pics

Holly inspired me to post a few new pics on my profile. I have not been very good at blogging on my profile, but, hey, I can't be great at everything can I?? haha They are a few pics my son took on the day we celebrated Mother's Day. (we did it a few days early because I worked all Mother's Day weekend.) The boys got me the beautiful plant and they thought there needed to be a few pics of me with it. I use to hate the camera, but, now I'm finding it's not so bad. I'm finally seeing a small difference in my size, though everyone thinks I'm crazy saying there's a huge difference in my size, no pun intended. I'm a very lucky woman...I have been blessed with a wonderful hubby, very supportive kids, and most of all, I have been blessed by this life saving surgery...not just physically, but, mentally..I feel like a completely new woman...I can't imagine how I'm going to feel with another 70 lbs gone. I'm also greatful for all the supportive, encouraging people here. I don't post often, but, lately I feel more and more like I belong in this circle of friends. Thanks everyone...and here's to our wonderful journey. Stacy

Hi Stacy... Well, let me tell you...I can see a big difference in your pictures. You will absolutely shock your husband when he finally sees you in a few weeks. Has he seen pictures of you since surgery? If not, what a surprise he is in for!! I know what you mean about feeling like a new woman, especially mentally. I think that I am more comfortable in my own skin as each day passes...it just gets better and better. By the way, your boys chose a beautiful plant for Mother's Day . ~Suz

You are looking great and OMG YES I can see a very big difference in the pictures. TRUST ME YOUR DH WILL LOVE IT!! GREAT JOB!

Isn't that funny Stacy- it was Janie's new pics that motivated me to post!!! I love how we all motivate each other!!! There's a huge difference!!! You look great!!! Your husband will be so proud of you!!! Holly

Stacy, I like all of your pictures. You look so different !! Your hubby isn't going to know you. I know how thrilled you are. I have not lost as much as you but I know how happy I am. I just posted some photos of me. Also taken Mothers Day. I always hated my photo taken too. Still am sort of shy. I am still working on my head shot for my profile. Can't seem to get it small enough. Your children I'm sure are happy for you. The plant is beautiful. I also noticed you had a porch swing. I also have one and was always afraid when I sat on it with someone else I would exceed the weight posted on it. But it is still swinging and now that warmer weather is here I can't wait to swing. Have a wonderful reunion with your hubby. Roxanne
