You look great :) Happy Surgiversary ! I also have a stricture and am encouraged by your journery. How many dilations did you have to have. I've had 3 so far :( I am only able to tolerate liquids and some soft foods, it sucks !!

You look beautiful before and after, the happiness is obviously stronger in the after! Congratulations on your first year - sounds like it got off with a rough start, but you overcame and triumphed. Thanks so much for sharing the story and the pics, it was very inspiring.
