5 years...

5 years ago today, I was enjoying some wonderful ice chips and wishing for that popsicle!!!!

I will be forever grateful that I made the decision to go on this journey.  Can't say that it's been easy, but I won't say it's been hard either!  In 2004, I was an extremely obese, unhappy single woman.  Now I'm 200lbs lighter, married to a wonderful WONDERFUL guy and loving my life!!!

If you are just starting out on this journey, trying to get approved, whatever...don't give up!  Just keep jumping thru hoops, filling out forms and answering questions - it is SOOOOOOOOOO worth it!

Thanks Julie - you are such a sweetie!!  I, too, have learned from you and others on this board.  In fact, I tell everyone I meet who is even considering this surgery to get on here!
