I have really looked forward to this day. I try hard to detach from the scale but I LOVE being smaller. Here's some pictures!!

This is me, right before I started my pre-op diet (just low carb, not liquids, thank goodness!). I was 273 in this picture (NOT my highest).

On the left is me the day of surgery, 263 pounds. Size 22w pants and 3x shirt. On the right is TODAY! I'm 173 and a size 12! I feel so terrific!! Thanks to all of you for your support. You know how much I need it!!
