I had my surgery on March 7, I've lost 103 pounds and feel amazing!! My energy is way up, and I don't get tired like I used to. I can do soooooo much more. I had complications after my surgery and knowing how miserable I was I would do it over again just to feel this way. Here is a before and after my 100 pounds. I still have a ways to go, but I promise it will be worth it!!!

It's my 6 month surgeriversary. It's been a hard, long road. I've learned so much about myself over the past 6 months. I am a strong person, I can overcome the worst of situations, and I am beautiful. I've learned lessons about love, life, and pain. It has been the hardest 6 months of my life. It's not easy learning a whole new life habit, it's like I've learned how to live all over again. I've had some amazing family and friends stick by my side through all the times, they have cried with me, laughed with me, celebrated with me, encouraged me, and been there for me when I needed it. I have also learned heart break, I've had people who I thought were there for me leave my side, and even go as far as to say things behind my back, and even to my face (and not nice things). Through all this I have come out on top. See I'm a new me, the old me is gone, I am a more confident person today than I was 6 months ago. I've worked hard to get where I am today, and I'm not done yet.
I've lost 120+ pounds since March 7, I've gone down 5 dress sizes, I've found the inner strength to join a gym, work out, and yes, I'm training for 2 5K's this spring. If you would have asked me a year ago about all of this I would have laughed at you. I never knew that I had this in me. My journey is far from over, but I know my path is not going to be smooth, but I know because of the love and support I have from family and friends that I will get there.
Thank you to everyone who has been there for me, thank you to everyone who has said encouraging things to me, thank you to everyone who has prayed for me, and yes, thank you to everyone who didn't have my back, you've all made me the strong person I am today. I've included some pictures with this post showing my journey.

Oh... My... Gosh! You look amazing and it sounds like you FEEL AMAZING. This may sound harsh but, I would count the people that left your side as extra weight as well. In today's world, we HAVE to be supportive of people's gender identity, sexual preference, religious views etc. but not one movement has been made to support those that are on a journey to be healthy! I see it the same as a journey to find who you are.
Btw... Nice hooters
