One Year Post-op VSG **pictures!**

 Tomorrow, September 6th 2012 marks my one year post-op anniversary.
My heaviest weight was about 300 lbs. My weight on the day of my operation was 265. my current weight is *drum roll* 155! YES! I have surpassed my original goal of 160! I am how a NORMAL BMI. I just wanted to toot my own horn and pat myself on the back and maybe, just maybe inspire someone out there.

So here is my Journey in a few pictures...

I Linked them so I wouldn't bog down people's computers. (Copy and paste the URL!)

You look fantastic!! Thank you for posting your pics, it really is an inspiration for me. I am pre-op but hope to have my approval by the end of the month. Keep up the great work!

 Thanks! I'm glad I could inspire you. I remember when I would browse this forum a few years back, my favorite posts were the success ones, with pictures of them getting smaller and smaller and healthier! Once you get your operation, I look forward to seeing your post-op success posts as well :).

Congrats!  You look amazing!  Love the tattoos, by the way.

Awe shucks!

Super inspiring. I can't wait to get there. You look amazing! 

 Congrats! You look great. You should be very proud of yourself.

You look FABULOUS!!!!

 I feel fabulous! thank you!

Beautiful!  So excited to see goals being reached!
