The best two years of my life
Diane, I say the same thing every single day of my life. I am so incredibly grateful for this new life, it sometimes just reduces me to tears. Thank you for making me smile. I don't think people who have never been heavy could understand how the weight influenced every single part of my being in the world.
yep. its so great. just got back from the studio and fired two loads of raku ceramics and trained a person and made some new art and ran around all day and see dr. C tomorrow! could never have done those two raku firihngs in one day before.
I am making some art that is social comentary on obesity. will post some pics when done. diane

Diane, just so you know, the hippo you gave me sits on my work desk and is a daily reminder of where I came from and why I never want to go back there again. It also helps to remind me and connect me to the WLS community and Dr. Cirangle and his groups. I don't know if I ever thanked you, but I am sure I didn't thank you enough.
I can't wait to see the pictures from your new projects!

Wonderful post, Diane!
I can't believe how much I missed out on because of my weight. And also, just how much easier everyday life has become. A year ago I huffed and puffed bending over to tie my shoes. Today I "jogged" over 3 miles in just half an hour. I can keep up with my dogs like never before and they now get tired before I do. Who would have thought!!!!
Glad you had such a great thought today and decided to share it!
