Thanks for all the congrats! It has finally hit me somewhere along the line today that I am really getting this done!! I am excited and nervous, and a little light headed when I let myself sit and think about it for a while! lol! I am going to have to say my goodbye's to french fries and bananas foster. :-( But it will be worth it in the long run!! I can't believe that I am finally going to be "me" again! I attached a "before" picture of me about 7 years ago, and a now picture. Soon I will be adding an "after" picture too! Wow, I can soon go dancing with the girls again and feel good on the dance floor! I will be able to fit into clothes from those stores where everything is 2 sizes smaller than the tag claims, like Forever 21! Wow...it doesn't feel like it can really be real! And hopefully...HOPEFULLY...I will lose my "chronic niceness" where I am nice to everyone about everything from fear of someone taking a cheapshot and cracking something about my weight (A breakthrough I had with myself lately...finally got to the root of this!). I can't wait to get my life back!!!
Before (And soon to be again!)

Now:
