Half the person I was

Well I did it..I dropped 3 pounds this past week to bring my total lost to 165...I weigh 162 today. I just had my year anniversary and boy oh boy have things changed in the past year. I went from a size 26 to a size 6 or 8 depending on the cut of the jeans. I went from a 3x or 4x shirt to a Medium. Physically I feel great...well usually I do but right now I have Epstein barr virus. I have been sleeping 12-15 hours per day for the last 2 weeks. I am starting school at the end of the month for Computer Engineering..my husband is starting too, we are taking the same classes. This surgery changed my life and I never want to go back.
