Hi LWs!

I haven't been on here in a while but I wanted to stop in and say hello and share a very powerful picture with you. I feel like it's bee hard to notice a difference while losing, maybe because I'm a LW and don't feel like I've changed that drastically. But I did a pic comparison tonight and WOW was I amazed.  It's the first time I've ever seen a picture of myself and not recognized myself. And thought the person in the picture looks pretty "normal" not supersized.

So here is the picture. Before...a week or so post op. And during, tonight 80 lbs down.

Isn't it AWESOME when we can look at ourselves and not think, "there is a fat person!!"???  You look very fit, shapely and "normal."  Congratulations!!

Thanks! Well, I don't feel normal quite yet (not sure if I ever will) but getting closer to that ;)
