I dont care if people looked at me funny for dancing, they used to stare at me for being fat lol.

Thanks for the sweet compliments.

I'm almost there...can't wait!

I havent yet had my procedure done, but reading post like yours inspires me! I got excited thinking about the day I would be able to fit a large. Thank you for sharing :)
