I have had so many great things happen to me since this wonderful gift. I can wear heals, and cross my legs, and breath so much better, however I have always wanted a nice pair of boots, but wasn't able to wear then because my calfs were way to big, Now here it is boot season, and Im scared to go try some, because the last time I tried, I was so embarassed, that I think it tramitized me. My husband wants us to go after church tomorrow. So wish me luck.

ChrissyChris - I'd love to wear the heels and have the ankles in your Avatar!!!! Sexy and hot, but I'm afraid at 59 those days are gone for me.

Delane - Hope you find a beautiful pair of boots - the ones up to the thigh!!!! hahaha - actually get ones that are comfie as well as stylish so you don't slip and fall on your skinny butt! I forgot about wanting high boots - that's a wonderful motivator. Let us know later if you got yourself a nice pair of riding boots, or the high heeled thigh high style.

This will sound bad, but I'm looking forward to not cringing every time someone wants to take my picture. I've hated pictures for years and have always made a point to avoid them if possible. The reason is because I always hated seeing the picture afterward. It really interfered with my denial of being fat. HA. After the surgery, I will gladly have my picture taken anytime.
