  1. Although, I've never experience this myself when I was obese I've seen it happen recently and I'm hurt that people can be such jerks. No matter your size we are all human beings, now that I've hit goal the same jerks comment negatively to me with comments like "shut up" skinny or Your skinny now we don't need your advice. So in this society your damn if you do or damn if you don't.....LOL

  6. I watched the video before my surgery, and it made me less nervous on the big day. But my friends say I'm crazy because I've watched a video prior to every surgical procedure I've ever had including the child birth video before having my daughter. I believe knowledge is power.....lol Take Care

  16. Great job! At this pace you'll be at onederland before you know it.
  17. Great question: I was tired of being sick and having doctors tell me due to your weight this problem is more serious and I wanted to give my daughter a life with activity, good eating habits so she would not have weight issues. This is what started me on the path of researching WLS, when I made the decision to have surgery was when I received my CPAP machine this was the last straw I refused to go the rest of my life hooked up to a machine before going to bed.
  18. WOW! What a difference you look amazing, 103lbs in 6 months outstanding keep up the great work.

  22. Funny I was thinking the same thing, I put my jeans in my daughters closet by mistake and when she brought them to me I had a puzzled look on my face. She said mommy these aren't mine there yours, so I'm nine months post-op maybe at my year mark my mind will catch up. Great pic by the way
