A new lease on life.

I'm graduating from college in May and my internship has just offered me a job.  A really great job!  I owe it all to the big boost in my self-confidence and self-esteem that the weight loss has given me.  I'm still not thin by any means, but I feel GOOD about myself for the first time in years and years - and I guess it shows.  I'm really happy with my WLS decision.
Life is good!

You'll never leave where you are until you decide where you'd rather be.

 Fantastic Joanna! You deserve it! You look great and should be so proud of yourself! (((Big Hugs))) I feel like we have been on the same up and down roller coaster lately! It's moments like these that make us realize just how far we have come! :)

Wow, congratualtions! What are you studying and what kind of internship did you get? I am also a "non-traditional" student and will be graduating next Dec. with my associate's degree in Health Information Management. I am looking for either a temporary job or internship to get me through the summer.

I know what you mean about having a big boost in confidence. I feel like I have endless possibilities at this point in my life. I am very grateful.

If life knocks you down 7 times, get up 8!Laura_Illinois
