this is what 45 pounds GONE looks like!

 Omg. Thank you! You look awesome. 

How exciting! Do a little dance you have earned it!

 Awesome!  Did you have an open RnY (noticing the scar)

Your countenance is so different!! I see that smile coming!!
Congratulations!!!

hehe...i do typically smile... that was just the ONLY before pic that i had :( my others got lost in a computer crash... all of my friends dont believe that is really me on the left... lol with the whole frowny face and not fixed hair it tends to throw people off :)

thanks ladies! i debated for 30 mins if i actually wanted to post this because of that awful before picture.. lol.. but i decided i would never see that again, so go for it! :)

Anyways, yes.. i had the open RNY, my incision is about 6 1/2 in long....and i was mowing the yard the next friday after surgery :)

Congrats!!!
