I've been getting this comment a lot, and although I appreciate that the acknowledgement of my weight loss, it makes me laugh.

To quote comic John Pinette: "How big was my head? What am I? The Kool-Aid Man!"

That's funny, but it's true. In myself, and in pics that I've seen posted, faces seem to lose their puffiness. Now that my face is less puffy, I find I don't wear my hair as puffy - I figured if my face was big, my hair had to be equally big so I'd be balanced.

Had RNY surgery July 22/11, St. Joe's Hamilton, with the awesome Dr. Scott Gmora. Had abdominoplasty August 2/13, Scarborough, with equally awesome Dr. Michael Kreidstein.

It's true! I CAN see it in your face! But then, that's all that's in the picture!!

And isn't it nice having only one chin! Looking forward to that myself.
