As the title says, I can't believe how much better I feel. I've always been over weight. My highest weight was 267, at 24 years old. I was I'm a abusive relationship because I didn't feel I deserved better. After a lot of tears and pain, I got the strength to walk away and do something good for myself. For my 25th birthday, I gave myself the best birthday present yet, my surgery. On August 20th, 2014, my life changed for the better.

As the title says, I can't believe how much better I feel.

Good for you for taking care of yourself! You look beautiful.
