Stats are listed in my ticker below.  OMG I have ALOT of wow's.  Too many to even count, but here are the highlights:

No longer wearing a wide-width shoe!  I went from a 10 W to a 9 M. Odd but true!

Being able to fit into a size 16-18 pants for the first time in 20 years!

Not being the fattest person in my group of close friends anymore. (And as a side note, the youngest person in our group--25!--gave ME clothes because SHE couldn't fit into them anymore!)

Fitting into a seat at the movies and having SPACE on each side between my butt and the chair arm!

Weighing less than DH for the first time in 6 years together.  *** quite a bit less now lol)

Being able to WALK through Wal-Mart for almost an hour (not having to ride on a cart) and then going to the mall and walking for 2 more hours with NO BREAKS to sit down and NOT getting winded!!!

Going to AC for the evening and not having to rent a scooter. I actually out walked some of the friends in our group.

Making SEVERAL trips a day up & down the stairs in my house without getting short of breath.  (Not so long ago I could barely make it once a day, much less several times).

Last week when my PCP said to me: "This time last year, I was more worried about your health than anyone else in your family (meaning DH and my 79 y/o FIL).  Now you are healthier than the 2 of them put together."  Brought tears to my eyes, even.

When my FIL was talking to one of our friends from out of state and he told them I was "becoming quite a hottie."  (No, don't call Jerry Springer lol...it was just cute that he's 79 and used the word hottie).

The list goes on and on and on.....I LOVE MY RNY!!!!!!!

And I am SOOOOO thankful for all of you here at OH for your support and friendship.  Love y'all!!!   XOXO, Jen
