It's taken me 2 weeks to actually post a new picture..my mind is really struggling with the new me. On 8/30/12 which was actually my 8 month post op day I weighed in at 155. This morning I weighed 151..a few pounds into the "normal" bmi range..and 6 pounds from what I decided my goal would be. I'm 5ft6 so normal for my height starts at 154.9. My weight loss has continued to go rather smoothly and pretty quick as well.
In the progress pic I was trying on a dress that I think I'm wearing to my 10 year high school reunion this weekend.

I always like to include a pic of my husband as he's lost 75lbs since I had my surgery..I don't think I would have been as successful without his support..excuse the glasses he was messing around in target..lol

First, I want to say you have a beautiful family. You are a very lucky woman. Next, you look terrific! That dress is perfect for you and you will knock them dead at the reunion if you wear it but I am sure you have many choices of things to wear now and I am sure you will look great no matter what you choose.
Congratulations on your weight loss and for the positive changes your family has made. I am sure that you and your husband's success will help your kids grow up with healthier eating habits because of the example you are setting.
