Two Month Update

Today is two months.  Wow I can't believe the transformation.  I was in a size 22/24 when I started this journey.  I have posted a picture of me wearing size 14 jeans all in TWO MONTHS.  I am very happy.  Yes they are a little snug but not for long.  I went out yesterday and got my eyeliner tattooed on. It looks great.  It will fade a little.  I have posted a picture of my eyes. 

 

Anyways, I am very glad I had surgery.  Only in my dreams did I ever image I would fit into a 14.

 

Thanks for letting me share!

I went to a lady who only does cosmetic tattooing.  Her name is LeeAnn and she lives and works in Ocean Isle Beach.  She is going to do my eyebrows next.  She is very good.  If your interested in coming to the beach and have it done let me know I'll get you her number.

Congratulations on your wonderful success. It sounds like like you started about where I did and like you I was absolutely amazed at the metamorphosis. Enjoy as the new you continues to unfold.

Wishing you continued success.

Wow!  Love your eyes and look at you - you are looking great!  What a wonderful feeling to get into those 14's.  I am looking forward to my day to post such a picture.
Congratulations!

Unfortunately, I had to delete this post due to privacy concerns.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!

You are doing great and here is to your continued success!   Love the liner and would love to do it but scared to death i would blink and get poked in the and go blind.   Almost blind in one eye so very protective of the good one!

Take care, Pam

Wow ~~  you look great!!!  Congrats on your success so far!  Love the eyes.  Did that hurt???  And if you don't mind sharing, could you tell us how much it costs to have it done?

Thanks!

Donna,

It doesn't hurt because they keep your eyes numb.  It cost 300.00 per area to have it done.  But it is worth it!  I'm going to get my eyebrows done too.  I saw people she has done the eyebrows on and they look so natural.  I love my new body....and my new eyes!
