4 lbs to GOAL and almost didn't make it back through customs lol

I just had the scariest NSV yesterday coming home from a business trip - i was stopped in customs and in checking my passport they guy says this doesn't look anything like you? I need another form of a picture ID to compare, so i give him my drivers license, and he says - well this looks like her but still not you??

I panicked and just said " I started exercising? " lol there were tons of people around and i really didn't want to get into the details of my WLS?? So he just looked at me funny and said good job and get new pictures.

It was the best feeling although those guys really have no sense of humor so it was a little nerve wracking as well.

Anyway YAY to my sleeve and YAY to almost goal, i can't believe in only 8 short months how my life has changed :-)
