Ok, it's 2:30 am, just got back in from a great night seeing people I have not been with in 3+ years. But wanted to say today I found my cheekbones! I'm 6 weeks post op bypass.

First pic take a couple years ago when I last saw this group

This pic I just now took. Sorry for the bags under my eyes. It's late!

So this is what

My 50 year old face looks like!?!? I see a mini face lift in my future! Lol

It's like "BAM". There it is! Lol. I used to walk past mirrors and store fronts and not know who the reflection was because my face was so distorted. I'm sure many of you have had that horrid experience where you don't recognize yourself. And with this blessing of surgery and the tool it gives us, we get to actually "see" ourselves again! Not to mention all of the wonderful things about ourselves that aren't visible!!!

So true. I hated mirrors, glass fronts ect. I would see myself and say, who is that? I was still me on the inside, but no one saw that, or maybe just I didn't see me. I went into a cave and only came out if necessary.
