New picture!!

A BIG thanks to mary for taking my picture with her digital camera last night at our support group meeting, I got it added to my profile today! Please go look at it and tell me what you think, it is a big difference from the picture I usually have attached to my post. Julie

Wow!!! You look great! Hopefully I can also post before and after pics that look that drastically different someday too. I gotta ask, did you ride some roller coasters at Disney World? That is one of my goals. I can't wait to take my kids on a whole bunch of rides when I lose more weight!!! Andrea

Yes, I rode all the rollercoasters while I was there. I went on space mountain, Dinosaur, Mission Space, and Test Track. I have small children so I didn't get to go to MGM but my husband and older son spent the day there and went on Tower of Terror and the rollercoasters there, too. It was amazing being able to get on all the rides (including the airplane) and not have to worry if I would fit or if I would be bumping into other people because of my weight. I am so thankful that I had this surgery, I have things happen to me every day that remind me that I have a new lease on life and I owe it to WLS. Julie

Wow Julie you look really great!! How old are you - just wondering because in your new pictures you look younger that what I always thought you were!!! Dont know why I thought you were older.....anyway, your an inspiration!!! Sunny

I am 32, but I feel like I am about 25 sometimes! I have more energy and fun now than I did when I was in my 20's. I actually got carded the other day, I told the cashier that she made my day!! Thanks for the post Julie

Julie-All I can say is wow! In your pic you look like you were nevert overweight!!!! I can't wait! I have lost 100lbs now and I am so excited, I'm working out hard and I would love to weigh 150. Keep up the great work..in a few months this recovery will be a memory and you will be a dancing, bowling queen ! You look beautiful! and you look 25! Deb Paul

Julie- you hot momma!!! You look great!!!!!!!! I wish I could close my eyes and be 18 mos out, instead of one!!!! I am going to Disney World this June and can't wait to be a normal sized person!!!!!! Thanks for the inspiration! Michelle

Hey woman... YOU LOOK FAAABUUULOUSSSSSS DAHLING. You have accomplished so much, on the inside and the outside. LOVE YOU Paula AKA Barbie

Wow! You go girl! What a change! Not only does this surgery help take off the weight, I think it is a fountain of youth as well!! You look like a young chicky kiddo! Size 3/4 jeans? I can't even imagine!!!
