Still short of "Normal" by 11 lbs and short of my goal by 20 lbs, I couldn't be happier with my one-year progress. Lots of loose skin (at my age, that's no surprise) but manageable with good clothing selections I consider my story a success. I believe I can get rid of those 20 lbs, but it will probably take another 6 months. This journey was no magic solution, and certainly not an easy decision, and it's not even a choice that is right for everyone. But for me and my life, my body, my heart, and my soul, this was THE thing to do. Yup...I'm a happy camper.
