Realized today is my 2 year anniversary. I posted on and wanted to say thank you here to the people who've helped me so much. The vets in particular- you know who you are- I strongly believe I wouldn't be successful without you guys.

My FB post is in the photo below- I've been +/- 2 pounds since Christmas and holding at 138 from 377. I'm wearing a size 2 and small tops (believe me I don't get how that's possible at 138 but I'll take a picture of my clothing tags if you don't believe me lol!). I was 26 and 3xl and that was pushing it before.
