a WOW moment
I had to go to my PCM for the annual crotch exam LOLOL anyways I was more then happy to get on the scale 
anyways my blood pressure has dropped from 140 to 119!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was soooo happy!! I had to fill out the paperwork for the testing and one of the questions was what kind of surgery have you had recently. One of the choices was LAP. I circled it and the doctor asked me what kind of LAP. I told him gastric bypass... he thought that was the same thing as being banded...hes just a family type Doc so he started asking tons of questions about it and so did the nurse. They were amazed and I felt like I had given a entire class about it. Anyways when I was leaving the office manager who was out to lunch when I checked in came in and could not believe how skinny my face had gotten. She said I looked really good and asked me was I done losing the weight I wanted to drop.. I said no I still have about 61 lbs to go and she said I would be too skinny!! hahahaha it made me feel good to have someone other then hubby tell me that Im shrinking away it made me think of you all here and I just wanted to share my small WOOHOOO!!!

Sounds like a usually yucky experience turned into something quite the opposite. You're doing a bang up job, lady. Take all the compliments you can get. You deserve them. You've worked hard to get where you are. I showed Michael your before and afters...he's quite amazed. Said he wouldn't even know that's the same woman. And that's in a fairly short period of time.
Inspire me some more!

Darcie -
Wasn't that just fantastic?! Thanks for thinking of us and sharing. I love hearing of all the big and little Wows that just reinforce the positive decision that we have made.
I can't wait to see a new photo of you. Maybe from the upcoming Marine Ball?
Keep up the great work.
