Hi all....it has been a long time since I updated.  I wish I could express how happy I am to have lost this weight.  I am sure that all of you post ops can relate to what I am going through.  Life is so different now.  I have this new found energy that I haven't had in since I was a teenager. 

I am down 180 pds in a year...how amazing is that!!  I still need to lose about 20-30 pounds and I will get there but I have been on a stall for about 3 months and I am not complaining one bit.  I have taken a job as a waitress and let me tell you I am walking my butt off so I hope to see the scale start moving again.

My mom and I were looking at old photos and I never realized how big I was until I started looking at those pics.  WOW!! How the mind plays tricks on you.  I was a BIG chick.  

I was at the McDonalds drive thru the other night and all I ordered was a tea and the guys in front of me paid for the tea and told the lady at the window that they thought I was HOT!!....when I pulled up to the window and she told me that it made me feel so damn good.  ME?? Leslie?? HOT??.....lol those are some words I never thought I would hear regarding myself.  I bet I walked around with a smile on face for a week thinking about that.  

I hope all of you are having wonderful success.  I will try and update again soon.
