You are such a tiny little thing -  I bet some people would never believe you were heavy, if they only knew you now and not from before.  You "look" like you were always tiny!

Thanks! I have had lots of people tell me that. It's funny because my whole life everyone always told me I was built just like my dad and looked just like my dad (he is short and overweight). I always thought I had a large frame. Now I look just like my mom and I found out that I am very small framed.

I do have a lot of droopy skin on my upper thighs, and some on my belly (also the "girls" are in sad shape), but the rest of my skin snapped back very well. In fall and winter clothes I look really good, and hopefully I can be strategic with summer clothes and a swimsuit to hide what doesn't look good.

Thank you, I couldn't agree more!  For a while I thought this day would never come - I went through 2 stalls that were downright painful.  It's good to be here.... Now to tackle another 10 pounds!

Linda!  You rock!  

I'm so happy for you, and join you in trying to get rid of that last 10 (or, for me, 15) lbs!

We can do it!

You look beautiful~ but you were beautiful before too.

A lady at walgreens today asked me how big I was before surgery. I showed her my drivers license and she said. Well you were beautiful before surgery too. When I saw your pictures I was thinking the same thing. You are beautiful.
Nothing tastes as good as this feels!
