WOW....What an inspiration for me. I've been having pre-op jitters and your story is so inspirational and reaffirms why this surgery is so important and all the success that may come with it!

Congratulations!!!

We "newbies" need more success/inpirational stories to keep us focused on the 'prize'.

Thanks for sharing!

I was where most of you newbies where three years ago. I really thought I would be overweight for the rest of my life. I had so many doubts and felt so hopeless. However, I knew I had to give it my best and dream big. I wasn't and I'm still not guaranteed success or happiness, but I had to start choosing to make my own happiness and do something everyday to make those dreams a little closer to reach. The fight is soooooo worth it!!! Best wishes to you! Your day is coming!!!
