The below picture is what I looked like at my highest of 418 and where I am as of last night at 219. I showed this picture to my 3 year old daughter last night and asked her who the guy on the left is. Naturally she said "thats daddy". I asked her who is the guy on the right and she said "I dunno who is it?" She genuinely did not recognize that as me.

Folks that right there is why I had this surgery. I did not want my daughter to know the fat unhealthy me. And guess what I accomplished it. This was a huge win for me in this journey and it mad me very happy.

Mine knows how to "work" the system already as well and she is 3. Its crazy how quickly they pick up on how to push our buttons.

WOW! what a transformation!!!! Good job!!!

From a woman's point of view (Me): That is awesome. You look 20 years younger, fit and healthy.

From my man's point of view? (Cause he was looking over my shoulder?): 'Nice fish'...

Says it all really!
