I know you have got to be an inspiration to many. I know that because I know 2 people who are working towards WLS because of my success as a WLS patient. It is hard work. I just came back from a jog/walk which I could not have done a year ago even though I was 5 months out from surgery. You have a lot to be proud of. Congratulations for your continued success.
