I came to the forum about the last quarter of this year of your's. I am always amazed how fast you have lost and I love seeing the changes in your photos. You have been straight forward with the ups and downs and have given me the incite to feel I can do this. Thanks and congratulations.

Girl, you look great! You have busted your butt and it has paid off!

Diva you are amazing, beautiful, inspiring, compassionate, honest, inclusive, and a hard worker! Did I mention SEXY?! That deserves it's own sentence! We are so lucky to have you on the board and congrats on all your successes you have worked for every pound and inch of your loss!

Girlfriend you rock! SO inspired by you and proud of you! I was just beginning my research on going to Mexico for my sleeve when I started to follow your journey. - You have been there for me the entire time like a great mentor and coach for me and many!

You are an incredible woman - and I am so thankful you shared your journey with all of us! You have answered so many questions of mine and I greatly appreciate that. As I get nearer to my goal and starting to consider plastics more and more.... I know you will continue to share your experience with us (me) and that gives me great peace of mind. Thank you ---- MMMMWWWAAAHHH big hugs!

Heyyy y'all!!! Thanks so much for all the super sweet comments!!

@M2G - YEAHHHHH LOVIN THE GIANT DANCING BANANA!!!!

@SouthernSleever - Sexy is NOT something I dared think about a year ago, so that's a really great compliment, THANKS!!!!

@Kimmes - I truly enjoy helping out and really feel like sharing my journey is the best way I can give back. I'm always here, and I never mind trying to give a 3rd point of view. If you ever have a q regarding PS... just let me know! Though I won't have any skin removals for a few years, if I even do.
