Beginning photos

Well I finally uploaded my beginning pictures, taken one week after surgery when I had lost 13 pounds. I don't look happy and it is not because of the surgery but because I hated my pictures being taken. I haven't put them on my profile before because they are awful but I guess we all think that or wouldn't have had this wonderful surgery!! Julia

Wow, you have come a long way, Julia. You are looking absolutely beautiful!! You go girl!

Gorgeous---beautiful---Ahhh you guys make my day. Julia

WOW! what a change 9 months can make. You are gorgeous. Suesan

Thanks Suesan---I don't know about gorgeous but I will take the compliment. I know I am so much happier and healthier than I have been in years! Julia

Julia, You really do look so nice. Thank you for sharing, I know it isn't easy nor is it fun but you are so right, this wonderful surgery has done so much for you and for many others and I'll be joining you all very soon myself. Congratulations on your continued success; you help so many when you share the way you are. Could you imagine how different you would be feeling had you not had the surgery? Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday. Darla

Darla, I am looking forward to seeing you tomorrow. Thanks for your note. It won't be long for you now---less that a week!! Julia
