A serious question for the veterans
Hello to all. I had my rny June 17 2013, and lost 143 lbs .I still see myself as a larger person. One day as I was walking into Walmart, I saw my reflection in the door. I stopped walking and was starring at myself. After a few people stopped and asked me if I was o.k.. I told them I lost 143 lbs. and not used to seeing myself smaller. We all kinda giggled and went in. I'm still waiting for my brain to catch up. But it is a fun journey...
