I am like everyone else been heavy most of my life. My parents are both type 2 diabetic and so was my mother's parents. I've always kinda worried that I was going to have to take insulin like they do. So started to research options and was luck my insurance company would help me. I just wanted to share with everyone my pictures. The first one is back in September and other one was today. Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

You look absolutely amazing. This is my first Christmas since surgery and it was a success. I finally feel like I'm in control of my life and my health. Congrats on such an amazing accomplishment.

Thanks! I did really good. I picked a few tiny tender pieces off turkey. ( had to taste it) when came time to eat. Had tablespoon of garlic mashed potatoes and couple of bites deviled egg. Wanted other things but stayed away. Was really hard, but didn't want to get sick. Haven't gotten sick yet and don't want to either.

Congratulations on your success so far. You look fantastic! You should be very proud of how far you have come in such a short amount of time.

Isn't it fun to watch the changes and they happen so darn rapidly!
