Diana, first of all congratulations. If a net 20 lbs is all you are worse for the wear after what you've been through, that's a pretty good victory!

I don't think much needs to be said about the scum of the earth who posted the photoshop job. It's not even well done.

Thank you so much for all you have done for people to learn about and fight for their DS.

Good for you Diana! 
Pick your surgery first, then your surgeon. Not the other way around.  
PS:... Potato chips should be a food group.

I'm tired of screwing with that damn health widget.
 I've lost 125 pounds to date!!!!
   And I'm UNDER 190 now!!!

Diana -
You look amazing and I wouldn't have known your age if you had not told me. You are a constant source of wisdom and support for so many of us here. I know if it wasn't for you, Larra, and some other amazing vets, I wouldn't be where I am now.

As for your stalker - WTF? Really? The photo hack job is obvious and what type of person would expend their time and energy doing this? I'm amazed.

Have an awesome weekend, girly!

Happy surgiversary!  I think you look great!   Your arms look great, I'm jeallous over them.  Way to rock your DS, Diana!  It's so nice to know that even at 8 years out, that our DS's work as long as we respect the rules.

Oh, and weird that someone would not only stalk you but photoshop a photo of you for FB.  Creepy! 

Love your kitchen by the way, I'm drooling over it!

The butt photo-shopping kind of looks like Kim Kardashian's butt. I'd be OK w/that (cuz I have no butt.)

You look great, Diana. I hope I look as fab as you do at eight years out.

Don't let the pigs & leeches get to you Diana.

After 8 years, you look great! I hope at 58 I can look this great & not like a made-up tween tranny.
Won against big bad (SoCal) Kaiser for a Duodenal Switch  Haven't heard of DS? Kaiser wants it that way. Come on over & read the truth
Hit goal (Normal BMI) on 2-10-11!    I LOVE my DS!!
My approval process timeline:
02/12/09 - Dr. refused to refer me for WLS
03/03/09 - Vented/whined about it on another board, planned to just wait until next year & switch plans
Let's see what happens!  **updates in blog**

Diana,

You look AMAZING and you are, and always will be a class act. You have given so much of your time to so many here on OH. You are beautiful on the inside as well as the outside.
