My 5-yr is in August (and I can paint my own toenails, too!).
Here's to the next 5 years!

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
Hi Lora,
While I wouldn't say that I got 'everything' that I wanted out of the surgery, I got an a great deal and I would definitely do it again. I still struggle with the vestiges of my obesity. I just wish I had not done that damage to myself... the damage I CAN see and the damage I CAN'T see. I don't know that I'll ever be completely okay with that, but I do work to keep it in perspective and appreciate what I have done for myself instead of focusing on what I did to myself.
Congratulations on your own upcoming 5th anniversary (and the ability to paint your own toenails).
Wishing you continued success,
Barbara
