Windows and Doors opening my way

SO I have had such a great day. I am 8 months post op (down 94) and have enough confidence in myself and my weight loss that I decided to start the process of becoming a police officer. Something I never thought I would be able to do because of my weight.

To top it off my trainer asked me to submit a story and before and after pictures to go up on their wall of success.

Please remember that although you are struggling now - and trust me I have had my struggles. I spent the first 3 months wishing I had never done this to my body because I could not keep things down. THis hard time will pass and you can reach not only your weights goals, but life goals as well.

So when a door closes somewhere a window opens, and sometimes both open for you! :D
