A more current avatar of Squishy
Hello all,
When I first came here, I lurked around a while, then decided to sign up as a member. I posted a picture of myself from when I was a "little Squishy" because (I suppose) I wanted a little anonymity.
I have grown to trust you all though and I finally decided it was about time I use a picture of the current "Squishy" as an avatar, so please consider this a formal introduction. 
I consider you all friends and appreciate being a part of this community. Maybe some day we can arrange a Thinner Times Gastric Bypass convention somewhere so we could all meet in person. (Maybe in Las Vegas or something... you can always find inexpensive flights to Vegas from anywhere, and hotels are usually pretty inexpensive too.)
I am trying to convince Mrs Squishy to become a member here too. So far she is still in the lurking stage.
-Mike-

Hey Mike.....it's good to see the real you.....what a nice smile. We could always plan to crash one of their parties or get togethers in CA!!! It would be fun.

Strange -
You don't look the way I would expect a Squishy to look! 
Good to finally "see" you Mike.
Now, if we can just get Mrs. Squishy to come out!

So that's what a Squishy looks like!! So nice to see a current picture of you, Mike. It does take awhile to feel comfortable enough to trust opening ourselves up by posting a current picture, doesn't it? You're doing good. It took me like 4 months!
Tell Mrs Squishy we would love to get to know her. I'm sure she will be as enjoyable to have around as her husband has been.
Glad to have you here, Mike...and you too...Mrs Squishy...even in the lurking mode.
