I had a little wow moment I thought I would share.  I had RNY 14 months ago, lost 112lbs so far.  I work for State Dept. of  Corrections Psych Headquarters.  A couple days ago one of the Doctors I work for but haven't seen in 6 months come in.  I was sitting at my desk, got new glasses on and she reaches her hand out to introduce herself..."hi, I'm Dr. Eskridge"  I said, I know you I am Val...she took her glasses out and choked on her spit,,,Val?  Oh my God, I didn't recognize you!!! You don't even look like you!!!  

I can tell you how good that made me feel.  I was discouraged because I passed my year and wasn't under 150lbs...I forgot how far I've come.  This was truly a wow moment for me and a reminder to be thankful for this opportunity God has given me to get my life back.  Stay encouraged family and work that pouch!!!
God is good all the time!!
