Hey Julie

I just wanted to say that it's not just your mom, I am proud of you, too. You have really worked that tool, woman.

Holy $@^&*, Julie! You look FABULOUS!

I can't wait until I've got fantastic after photos! So far all you can see in mine is that my face is smaller...I'm losing in my face, my fingers, and my feet. WHY won't the rest of my body get with the program?!?

I really really appreciate all the responses! Thank you!
I've had a few good "wow" moments over the last 2 and a half months since surgery ... but seeing those pictures side by side just blew me out of the park!
In the first picture I was wearing size 26 jeans. I'm sitting here now wearing size 18's. So yes, I know I look different ... but it finally 'clicked' when I saw the photo's. Oh, and standing there in a tank top is NOT my style! I did that for my own eyes just so I could get a better idea of what I look like now. Geez, I can't believe I posted myself in a TANK TOP!!! ((shaking my head))

Well, thank you guys ... and to those of you who have been a little nervous about posting pics ... JUST DO IT!!! I think we all look forward to seeing each others progress.

You look fantastic, Julie! So much healthier & happier! I don't like cameras either (still) but it will become easier for you.

Way to go!
