A successful journey so far!

I didnt know where else to put these. Because I feel like I'm already a success, I figured I'd put them here. I took some pictures of me in a brown dress I bought on my way home from my Sleeve surgery on September 19th. I bought this dress too small on purpose. It is a Size L. This is me wearing this dress barely two months later!! ) I"m all smiles!!!

Wow you look sooo much smaller! Especillay in the brown dress compared to the long sweater picture! Your face is so slim too, you have a very nice jawline with no wobbly neck. I just have great feelings about how your success is going to be. You are always so positive and upbeat I just know you will continue to be a huge inspiration and a shining light! Just look how much you have already accomplished. KUDOS

Awww you all are the sweetest!!! I really can't see it when I look in the mirror to be honest. All I see is me still size 28. Then I try on these small(er) clothes and I'm amazed I fit them. Some of my small(er) clothes are starting to baggy up on me too. ...which is just fine!!!...

At least several times per day now someone is commenting on my weight loss or telling me I look good. It makes me feel good, and it helps me to know that I really DID make the right decision to do this.

Lila, best wishes on your surgery coming up!! You will be so happy - and maybe not at first, but soon you will realize that this surgery REALLY DOES WORK!!!!!

Hugs to all!!! We CAN do it!!!!!!!!!
