It's been awhile since I've posted, so I thought I would give an update today.  I am just over 6mos post-op and have lost 83 pounds.  I went from a size 20 pant to a size 10!  I was wearing 2XL cotton shirts and some 3 XL's and am now comfortable wearing size large tailored shirts.  I am running a 5K at the end of April and am really excited about that.  My bloodwork is extraordinary, my energy level is through the roof, and I am the happiest I have ever been.  This has been such a wonderful experience.  Having surgery was definitely the best decision I have ever made.

Fantastic!!!  I agree this is that best I've felt in years too.  I am sooooo glad for you Stacy because I remember how you use to be down on yourself.  I always thought you were beautiful anyway.  But now you have got to be looking HOT!!!  I can't wait to see you soon.
