checking in..with pics..20 mths postop
Thank you for sharing with us. I am grateful. I'm so glad you are off your meds and doing great! Sorry about the iron issue though. I hope I have great restriction like that! You've came a long way! I love how you lined the pics up. Your hard work really really shows! You are an inspiration to me, Dawnie.
Lookit you, you sexy thing you! You're doing awesome!!!

Dawnie, you are doing amazing! I know what you mean when you say if you don't lose another pound you'll be happy but that you will get them off. That's where I am too.
To those newer people on here who are starting at a higher weight, you CAN do this - but you CANNOT compare yourself to people starting at a significantly lower weight and getting to goal more quickly. If you have more to lose, then it's likely going to take you longer - but I think Dawnie will agree with me when I say that every ten pounds lost correlates to an increase in quality of life - and to an increase in your health status too!
Just don't get discouraged!
Dawnie, you look AWESOME!
