One Year Update - Long and with pictures

Wow...you look great and have done a super job!

I love your no nonsense attitude. I think we all need to get real when we start this process. I am older and felt it was my only option or die from obesity related medical issues. I wasn't so much focused on losing the weight to look better, but b/c I was getting sicker.

I had surgery a week ago and it has also been smooth sailing. I like what you say about taking care of yourself b/c no one else will. I took care of clients, family and friends while I got heavier and sicker. you gotta pay attention.

Keep up the good work...you are an inspiration!

Thank you so much!! I hope you have smooth sailing the rest of the way!! kuddos to you for doing something for yourself!!!

You have done a fantastic job and are an inspiration. Thanks.

You look amazing! Thanks for sharing. I am having surgery next Tuesday and it really helps to see great results like yours. May I ask, how is your hair so healthy? I'm concerned about hair loss. I was going to start Biotin, but many are complaining about excessive hair where they least want it.

I did not use Biotin. I had a friend use it that did not have surgery. She was looking for thicker hair. Unfortunately it gave her hair growth everywhere!! As soon as I started losing my hair I went to my stylist and cut it off. I figured my hair would look fuller with a short sassy cut as opposed to my long hair! Good luck to you! 

Terrific job, and a crazy awesome job staying focused and not derailing despite some major stress there! I guess I didn't even realize there were leagues for older women to play hoops. I think I might just check that out to use as a goal once the surgeries are done- what  a pile of fun that would be! Take good care of yourself!

Thank you so much!!! Joe Dumars has some great adult leagues! I'm not sure if you live close!

You look wonderful and are such an inspiration to me!!! Congratulations on achieving such amazing results!!!! 

Thank you so much! You're well on your way....you're doing fantastic!
