Okay, I finally have a few minutes to post about my wonderful, yet exhausting weekend. I went to a Jaycee GA (state convention, volunteer group i belong to). Anyways I hadnt seen a lot of these people in over 6 months. I couldnt figure out why people weren't saying hi, or giving me wierd looks. I finnally started approaching them and they siad they sort of recognized me but with the short hair they weren't sure. And I looked great!! I laughed and "confessed" about the surgery and that i was feeling great and thanks for the compliments, i even got to do the "show off" spin I just couldnt believe that only 40lbs later there is that much of a difference. I havent updated my pics but took some this week with the 35mm (digital broke) so will post them when i get them back. But let me tell you I was on cloud nine all week-end, i could slip past crowded chairs, and cross my legs and wear high heels (for several hours) and dance, and not get holes in my pantyhose(ladies you know what i mean)!! What a great weekend!! And yes i did behave, everything they had i was able to eat, and i even went to training so i learned something too. These milestones though were great. Happy loosing Giovanna

Congrats! Wait til you hook up with folks in 6 months who haven't seen you post-surgery! I met my buddy's ex-wife this summer at a wedding. She went from 360 to 160. I was standing 15 feet away from her and Scott had to point out that this lovely woman was the girl I knew as his wife so long ago. I wasn't trying to be rude or oblivious - she just looked like another person. Karen (Nurse Fantastic) at Dr. F's office calls it a re-birth. In that spirit....Congratulations Baby! --Harbor
