I can't believe it, but two years ago today I had 85% of my stomach removed - WOW!  I can honestly say it's the best gift I ever gave myself.  I have gone from being an observer of life to an active participant.  I'm not at my goal yet - but I will get there! 

Thanks to everyone here at OH - you have all been an awesome support system for me!

Now for my before and during pics:
