Little Butt?

I had some major WOW moments this past week that I know you can all relate to -- First off, I had to put my watch on the LAST little hole because my wrist is so small now that it was too big on me. Then someone gave me a beautiful ring for my birthday in size 7 and it was still too big! I've gone from size 10 to 6 and 1/2! My son and I shared an arm chair at Starbuck's and I couldn't believe that the TWO of us could share ONE chair. That never happened in my life! A few people at work told me that I was going to have to change careers and become a model because I was so tall and getting so thin. (TALK ABOUT FLATTERED!!!) And my favorite one: some one told me I had a cute little butt now. NEVER in my life did I think I would hear the words "little" and "butt" together in one sentence about ME! (I actually put a picture onmy profile of me showing my butt -- with clothes of course!

) I feel so blessed by this surgery. Even though lately things have been rough -- My house is on the market, my divorce should be final in a matter of months and my boys are having a hard time with it. I feel a lot of sadness but a lot of excitement at the same time. I used to feel like my life was over and now I feel like the possibilities are endless, the future is open wide and my life has just begun! HUGS, Vi

Gracias Celia! You have always been so sweet to me. I remember meeting you a couple of weeks before our surgery and you always made me feel so good. What a blessing my friends have been -- both the OLD and the NEW ones! Hugs, Violeta

WOW,

You both look FINE, very

I too am part of the century club. I started this journey at 365 lbs. and I now am at 256lbs. My goal is 200,(last time I was 200 lbs was maybe 3rd grade

) it has been slow for a few months now, but, I keep pluging along. We have to look at all of our successes. I have gone from a 52 pair of pants to a 40, a 4XL shirt to a XL, I've stopped taking all of my BP meds and am now taking 0 units of insulin, (that right there is a big WOW) Keep it up, you both really look great..
