Hi all,

Just wanted to check in on OH today as it has been one year since my surgery. What a year it has been! I went into surgery on 12/21/11 at 268 pounds with my highest weight being 275. Today I weighed in at 151. 117 pounds gone! Not only do I look different, I feel I am the better version of me. I hope that all of you considering VSG know that even though it is scary the outcome is SO worth it. Happy Holidays to everyone here on OH! xoxo!

Michelle
