Sorry that I haven't been posting much - we can't get on the internet at work anymore and my home computer has been a real pain in the arse lately. I read up on the posts as often as I can.

I had a really really really bug WOW moment today. I wore a size 18 jean skirt today. I started out as a size 26 3 months ago but even bigger than that is the fact that I haven't worn an 18 since I was in Jr. High.= we're talking nearly 30 years ago.

Today would have been my 19th wedding anniversary and looking at the pictures today was surreal in many ways. My wedding gown was a size 22. My weight was about 25 lbs heavier than I am right now.

I wouldn't trade this ride for any amount of money in the world. Keep up the good work - I know I will.

That is so cool Iris.
BTW the swan is on my fireplace mantel and everytime I look at it I think about you.
Maybe we are like ugly ducklings and after wls we turn into beutiful swans.
