Hi everyone,

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!!

It's been 8 months since I had my sleeve done and life has been great! I met my doctor's goal 6 months after the surgery, but still need 7 more pounds to meet my personal goal. I haven't been able to update my widget since the new OH change. When I click to enter my weight nothing shows up...anywhoo, I am now 142 lbs and am trying to get to 135 lbs. VSG has been the best decision I've ever made. My family sees how happy and healthier I am....my children love that I play with them and get to do things with them all the time now. That alone makes this all worth it.

I won't make this long so on to the pictures! :) Never thought I'd be excited about posting pictures of me.

Here is a before and after....

If I wouldn't have known any better I'd have thought the photo on the right was from a clothing catalog - you look good enough to model.

Congratulations on such a great outcome.

Thank you - that's quite a compliment! I still find myself hiding behind the group when getting a picture taken, but realize I don't have to anymore. :)

I agree with the other poster. That is a model/catalog quality pic. Print it off and hang it all over to admire (and remind you how far you have come!!!).

Thanks for being so sweet. My hubby really likes this picture too and asked me to print it out for him so I guess I'll do that this weekend. :)
