I loved reading your post. I hated flying and traveling when I was morbidly obese!

I am so looking forward to not having to use a seat belt extender. The last time my husband and I flew we bought an extra seat so there was no worry with squeezing. We leave go on vacation the end of October and did not buy any extra seats. With me being down 186 pounds I really don't think seats or seatbelts should be a problem.

Thanks for the love, everyone! It has been a great ride so far. Because the change is gradual, I often neglect to notice the difference. It takes moments like this that act as a reminder of the fact that I am headed in the right direction.

After writing my post, I went back and Looked at some pre-op pics. I decided to post some before pics, as well as some "now" pics. I won't call them "afters" because I'm not done yet and I never will be because this is a lifestyle, not a destination.

I love the positivity of all the members of this forum. 💗
