Motivational Photo Inside!
The first photo was taken just 3 days before my gastric bypass surgery so I must have weighed 287 lbs then. I remember this day very well. It was father's day and I was scared to death that I was going to die during surgery. I can remember thinking "well at least my family will have these last photos of me." (Yeah I was that morbid about it.) I am so happy that I put my big girl panties on and faced my fears. Life is 200% better now!
In the second photo I am 13 months post op and weigh 147 lbs! Life is hectic and far from easy BUT I have to admit...it makes things a hell of a lot easier when your not carting around an extra 164 lbs!

Cute! Love that blue top. It reminds me of some of the clothes on one of my favorite sites. Check out www.modcloth.com, they have some really neat dresses!
