I thought I would post my goal pictures. I have not had plastics yet...I wore this outfit to the seminar I spoke at last week..

Here goes! See my hubby..Isn't he cute!!!!!!!!

Your journey has been filled with alotnof hardships but yet you have rolled with the punches in a state of grace that simply amazes me! I dont think I would be able to be in such good spirits as you are. You are simply amazing!!! I am still praying for you & a speedy recovery as you do not deserve to be going through more complications. You look absolutely stunning & you have a beautiful smile! Keep your head high as you have been & may you be blessed with a future filled with wonderful memories & be able to put all of these hardships behind you once & for all!!! Your husband is certainly one lucky man to have you as a wife!!!

you are the first person ever to say that my hubby is fortunate to have me as a wife @@cherbear33 Most see the hardship that he has endured with all I have been through. And I see it too. He is the strongest man I have ever known and I have fallen in love with him all over again over his strength and kindness for me.

It was very sweet of you to see it a different way...Thank you..You brought tears to my eyes!!!!!!!!

Not really. Still have a drain hanging from my side but it is what it is!

I've been wondering how you were doing. I read about your complications - wow, stiff stuff but you've powered through it!

How are you doing now?

And I love your pictures! One of these days I will post some of mine.

You look peaceful and beautiful. And your home is gorgeous!

You (and your hubby) look great! Thanks for posting and always, thanks for your kind and gentle words you give so generously to everyone on here. You are an inspiration.

I can't wait to see your success pictures...Your going to love the journey and the ups and downs. As you travel this road you will find yourself and be so happy you did this!

I go back to the hospital tomorrow for the surgeon to check things out again! Thank you so much for asking!

Congratulations, RJ. Now, suggestion (if I may): Go get a little sexy, fitted, black dress, or even a red one, and show those new curves! Rock on, RJ.

I have the skinniest legs on the planet......And I have to get some skin removed...I may find a long black dress. But no doubt my little black dress will never happen...

TY Sweetie!
