Just to let you know that I updated the picture of the various stages of my weight loss in my profile.  Please take a look.  I have 20 more pounds to reach my goal.

Thank you Pat!  You are right about my loving my body.  Whenever I look in the mirror, it simply amazes me to see my sides actually making a curve.  Wow!

Joy,
What a transformation. You go girl!!! Newbies are always hesitant to take the 'before' pictures. Yours show what a whole bunch of hard work and WLS can do for us. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Barbara.  The credit really goes to my Lord in heaven and my great bariatric surgeon, Dr. Robert Shin.  I feel wonderful and so healthy.  The mirror amazes and thrills me.
