Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to everyone!  It's also my 7 month surgiversary.  It's hard to believe the changes I've undergone physically and mentally in the past year.  I've lost 92 lbs and 70 inches!  I have 16 lbs. until the Dr's goal and 20 to 25 to my goal.  I finally "came out" on Facebook to all the people who didn't know about my surgery and have started telling a few people at work.  At first I kept it very close to my vest for many reasons, but now I know that I need to be an advocate for WLS and maybe my story will push someone to make the decision for themselves.  I'm going to try to upload a few pics...

This one is a family pic at Disney in 2005
 

This is yesterday and these are my jeans from 1 year ago

Thanks for all of you being here for me and being such a great support system.

Holy crap!  You look amazing, and best of all I bet you feel amazing.  Thanks for sharing, I know I would have been lost without the support of all the great people on OH.

Wow Deidra!  It doesn't even look like the same person in both of the pictures.  You have really changed...congratulations!

You look great!  Congrats!
