Default I Reached My Goal

Its been 2 years as of June 7 and I am below my goal. I never thought Id make it here. I am very proud of the progress Ive made. Well worth it. I was 279 and Im 139 today!!! Im gonna try to post before and now pics if I can get it to work. Anyone out there trying to decide if you want this surgery just wanted to tell you its awesome!!! Now the first month I hated it but it is a breeze after that. I can now eat just about whatever type food I want but in small ammounts...well worth it!! Ok Lets see if I can get the pictures on here.

Red face Thankyou very much!!!

Thankyou all so very much!! Makes my day for sure to be complimented and all of you have done great as well!! Feels GREAT to be a loser doesnt it? I remember 2 years ago finding this site and reading everyones stories and dreaming it could be me...Thank GOD I am one of you all now It has went very well for me no problems at all untill last week I had to have my gall bladder removed which Ive heard is very common but even that went well. I am happy to report that for whatever reason and alot of use on my Ab Lounger I have not had any reconstructive surgerys either, I said my bathing suit picstures are not pretty but they are a far cry from the way I looked in that bathing suit in the first picture 2 years earlier hugh?? Thanks again for all the kind words. As I said WE ARE ALL DOING GREAT AND LOOKING GREAT!!! Congrats to all!!!

God Bless,
Jan W (St Louis Missouri)
