Wow. That was powerful, personal, relatable, ... And sad. Did you see yourself in that article like I saw myself?

So much truth for me in this article. Thanks for sharing

That's me...thank you for sharing.

Thanks, Susan.

I can honestly say I don't feel like her.

Yes, I have some sagging skin.

But I am so grateful to be normal sized, even with the sagging skin. I just feel so much better physically. I can do so many more things now than I could 90+ pounds ago. Some of those things are "little" -- but to me they're really big, like bouncing up and down the stairs to our porch without even thinking about it, much less worrying my knees won't support me either direction.

My poochy tummy isn't even CLOSE to negating the value of my new, easy mobility.

I'm sorry she (and maybe others of you) are having your WLS benefits overshadowed by sags and bags and skin.

I wish I could POOF! those bad feelings away. And make you feel more of the good feelings I know you also have.
