Hey BAF family!

Today is my the 2 year anniversary of my surgery.  Last year I didn't even mention it because I was upset and ashamed that I wasn't even close to my goal weight.

This year I'm still not where I want to be....but I certainly not where I used to be.  I started my journey at 240 (the day I started my pre-op diet) and now weigh 180.  People ask me if it was worth it to have the surgery and I say ABSOLUTELY.  If I hadn't I would probably be well on my way to 300 pounds!  I'm still plugging away trying to get my goal and I know I'll get there!

Happy 2nd rebirthday to you ((((Telaya))))!  You are still on the journey and that is what matters.  I wish you continued success.

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown
