Congrats on your decision...

I took a picture of myself on "decision day" - 08/20/13. It was the day I stood on the scale in the doctor's office and cried. I vividly remember how I felt that day - I was sad, I was angry, I was desperate. I look at my face in that picture and see an empty shell of a person - no life, no joy, no happiness. I am so glad I documented that day with a picture.

This is an amazing journey you are about to take - there will be highs and lows, joys and tears.

Best of luck to you!
