So excited after seeing a friend post surgery!
I haven't seen a friend in like 7 or 8 months and she is 14 months out of RNY. I am using her Dr to do my surgery. I was in Kroger and talking to a mutual friend on the phone and she said oh that girlfriend was coming into Kroger to look for her. Well I didn't recognize her. SHE LOOKED AMAZING FELT AMAZING and was no longer worried about dying from a illness due to her weight. It was so nice to see her with her son and to see her in size 10 pants that were swimming on her. She can fit in a 6 I said girlfriend wear the 6 LOL.
I love seeing everyones pictures here but to see someone I saw daily (I did daycare for her son for a year) and not recognize her it really hit home. All night long I kept saying to my husband I can't wait to see what I really am meant to look like. Her face has changed she doesn't have much excess skin yes I asked to see HAHA.
I am so ready to start this next chapter of my life I wish the Dr could fudge the dates and say I did my 4 months already....I am into month 4 so it is right around the corner!
Thanks to all of you for inspiring newbies like myself.

That will be you quicker than you can imagine. I had 6 month supervised diet that I thought would take forever. But it passed in the blink of an eye, I had my surgery and now down 90 lbs.
It is the absolute best thing I have ever done, and I am sure you will feel that way too down the road.
Good luck to you!

It is so exciting to see that! I have a friend who had surgery over a year ago, and honestly, I think if I had bumped into her on the street, I probably wouldn't recognize her. The change was THAT dramatic! I can't wait for surgery, either. I just want to get going!

I have a couple of nurse friends that have had this surgery, and they both look drop dead gorgeous! (Of course, the weight had nothing to do with that, they are both absolutely stunning women anyway!)
But they are both more healthy and smiling and there is a joy like never before...
And now... Im just waiting my turn...

I am with you.....I had my surgery the day before yours 3/26/12. and I lost 25lbs pre-surgery and now I am doing what I have to see the scale continue decline....:-)
Well I personally think ladies we will be healthy, fit, and FABULOUS DIVA's after the surgery. We are already fabulous we are just working on the healthy and fit!
Can't wait to share in all your tales from before and after the weight loss surgery.
