new pics and update on blog!

For those who are interested I did upload some new pictures.  Some of my new haircut, some of the dress I posted about a while ago for my husbands graduation party and some other before and afters.  I also updated my blog if you'd like to read it.  I didn't realize how long it had been since I posted.. p.s... FYI. check out my bmi... I'm almost not obese!!!!!!!  :)

Wow Tara!  You look amazing!  I love your new haircut too.  What a wonderful thing, to donate to locks of love.  Keep up the good work.  You are doing so well. Linda

Thank you Linda.  I appreciate your kind words!  You guys (and gals) on here have been such a great support.  I appreciate each one of you!

Tara, you look amazing!!!  Congratulations!  How was it speaking at the seminar?  I am speaking in July.  Did they ask LOTS of questions?  I'm actually looking forward to it as well.

Kim... Where have you been???  I haven't seen or heard from you in a LONG time!   How is everything?  Are you going to support group tomorrow?  I bet you are looking great!  How's that ulcer? Thanks for your comments.  I had a good time at the seminar.  They asked a lot of questions.  I was glad Dr. Gorrin was there to answer a lot of them but I think they liked hearing a story from another patient.  I think that you will be a great speaker and have a lot more for them to ask about because of the gallbladder issue and the ulcer.  I really haven't had any complications (thank goodness!) but it's not super exciting to talk about.  They were all very kind and even clapped for me ! Tara

I've been very busy with work lately.  I've been lurking mainly but I've not been on too much.  We are definitely going to make the meeting tomorrow night.  I can't wait to see Dr Movassaghi again ... he did my breast reduction 5 years ago.  He is a great surgeon and very nice.   I am doing very well, down 108 pounds now.  The ulcer is doing well ... i think it is all healed up now.   Are you going tomorrow night?  I hope to see you there.

Tara, you look so great!! WOW you have such a pretty face. you started where I am now and I have lost 60 lbs. I am pretty happy with how things are going for me to. I just posted my before and after also  Kelly

Kelly, First thanks! Second... you look great.  That 60 pounds has made such a difference already.  Congratulations!  Keep up the great work!

Tara, I was just reading your post. Congratulations on your success!  You look very familiar to me.  Did you by chance go to Thurston High School and graduate in 95?  You look like a Tara that I knew then.  Sorry that I don't have a picture on here as of yet, but my maiden name was Cassiday. Leslie

Yes as a matter of fact that's me!  I think I remember you did you have brown hair? It's amazing how small the world is!  I didn't read your profile (if you have one) but I will! Tara
