Not sure if I am remembered!

Hey girls and guys, My name is Rachael, I used to be on this board when it first popped up! I am 23 years old I have a 4 year old daughter, I live in Houston, Texas I had the surgery aug,04 it has been a little over a year for me and I started at a size 26 and went down to a 8!!!! I never wore a 8 in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was 315 and now I weigh 160 Here are some photos of me new! http://photos.yahoo.com/rachaelrb2004 check them out. and for those who know me before Hi and I am back!!! Rachael

Wow Rachael, Welcome back! I remember checking out your profile way back when I was considering the surgery last fall. But look at you now! Your face has such well-defined features! And you look so much younger and def. happier! At my highest weight I was wearing size 26 and now I'm in size 18 only 3 months out but I haven't let myself even dream of ending up in a size 8! Just out of curiosity, how tall are you? -Kari PS: Are you still noticing changes in your body or weight or have things pretty much stabilized by now?

Def Happy!!! Thank you!! I notice changes all the time. I stpe on the scale and i'm 160 then I eat and Im 162 then the next morning i'm 157 it's weird. But I def think I am going to stick around this. Hopefully, because I think I am getting too skinny. I am 5'8 I always told myself I would be happy in a 16! Then when i got there I though hmm maybe a 12. Then I totaly skipped that part!! But it is funny I dont see myself that small in the mirror... Rachael

rachael, You look great keep up the good work. You have such a beautiful family you all look very happy I remeber seeying you on here were all still here and I am happy to see your back Daria

I'm pretty new here, and I'm having surgery on the 20th. You look great. I am 308 now, and 5'10" Im just wondering how tall you are. I'm trying to imagine my after body. You have a beautiful family. I have a 16 month old daughter. She's part of the reason I'm having WLS. Can you tell me how you get the pictures in your profile? Thanks, Amy

Wow, you look fantastic! What an accomplishment! You have come so far. Out of curiosity, did you have plastic surgery for any excess skin?

You look great! Good to hear from you again.
