Cannot believe it has been a year but it has, HAPPY SURGIVERSARY TO ME!!!!
Wow, what a year it has been, down 130lbs and now living life!! I am a much happier Mommy of two boys, we are ziplining and camping and running at the park and today we went to the waterslides... anything I want to do, I CAN DO!! That in itself is totally and completely PRICELESS!!! I started this journey so I could be healthier for me but even more so for my kids, I wanted to be the best Mom I could be, not the Mom who couldnt keep up and all my dreams have come true!
Shout outs to my girls and guys in Ottawa, you are a big beautiful family that I am so proud to be a part of. COULD NOT have done this without each and every one of you. BIG HUGS to my surgery buddy Sherri who rolled into the OR right after me last year, we did it girlfriend!!!! Also want to say a huge THANK YOU to my angel KarenM #2, you are not only an amazing angel who has seen me through this last year but you are also one of my dearest friends... I Love You!!!!!

and here they are... The BEFORE AND AFTERS!!!! -130lbs, I've gone from 273 to 143lbs in one year!! A size 26 (barely fitting) to a size 10 (my dresses are size 8!!)

Hugs
Love Jenny

Hey Jenny,

Wow, wow, wow. I have only known you for two months at the Ottawa WLS Support group and hence the skinny you (BTW - you look even skinnier in person). Congrats on your wonderful success this past year. Thanks for sharing.
