Just some pictures! 13-months (x-posted)
Awesome!! I love the steering wheel picture! That was one of my favorite WOWS! My Mom and I got in my car and I said, "someone has been messing with my seat". She asked why of course and I replied that I was lower because my arm had to angle up to rest on the door while I was driving. Also, the mirror was off. Mom just laughed and said, "no one messed with the seat honey, your ass is thinner so you sit lower"! LOLOL! She was right! We both laughed in amazement! I am also way back from the wheel and I've adjusted it many times! It is great!! Thanks for sharing the pictures! You are doing a fantastic job!! Connie
The sitting lower is the weirdest part. I expected the chair to get wider I didn't expect to get shorter while sitting!
The first time I noticed it I was inspecting our couch and my husband was like wtf are you doing? And I was like, are the springs broken in here or something, I'm way farther down. And he's like..well YEAH cause you have way less ass dear!

YOU GO GIRL!! YOU ARE WORKIN' IT!!
Congrats to you! You look absolutely AMAZING! You should be so proud of yourself and your photos are a great inspiration! The pics of the steering wheel brought tears to my eyes because I experienced the same thing a couple of weeks ago and didn't mention it because I didn't think anyone would TRULY understand. Talk about an "Ah-ha" moment.. You're doing great! Keep up the good work and THANK YOU for sharing!
I think all the time I wish I had taken more "weird" before pictures like my fingers around my wrist. Or close up pictures of my ankle or neck. Because I have far back full pictures but little things like that are harder to remember what it used to be like.

Hi- I am another lurker who just HAD to reply to say CONGRATULATIONS!
What a wonderful inspiration you are to those of us who are nervously awaiting our own surgry.
Thanks for posting these pix and truly you look great- doesn't even look like you have too much hanging skin. But even if you do, just look at how much better your life is. Truly amazing.
Way to go, girl!!
