After a little over 2 years I have done it...I have reached my goal weight that I had set before wls. I am now 199lbs! It's been the hardest thing I have ever done, but I would not change it for anything and I'd do it all again. My life has changed so much in the 2 years since my surgery. I have grown as a person, I am able to do so much more now, I have gained confidence in my personal life as well as professional life. I'm now an RN and I have to say the way I feel about myself now has helped me achieve this goal as well as many more. If you are reading this and are thinking about surgery or if you have had surgery already, don't lose heart...it takes alot of work and devotion, but you too can do it. Thank you everyone for your support. My goals now are to lose about 20 more lbs and have my loose skin removed...I will keep y'all posted!

So I got on the scales and I liked what I saw...217! YAY! I am still working out and walking about 4 miles 3-4 times a week. I am finished with my 3rd semester of nursing school and one more to go...almost there! Check out my new pictures...

Hey everyone! Well things are going great, this semester is over in two weeks and have never looked more towards summer than now! I am down to 250lbs!!!! Yep that's right, I  am down 105lbs and it feels wonderful to say that! In a size 40 in some pants now! This is short...gotta run for now! ;)
