Who IS that girl...

...wearing knee-high boots, and pencil skirts, walking up stairs and escalators, enjoying a quick hard-boiled egg for lunch before dashing happily back to work?

Who IS that girl shopping in H+M, Old Navy, or anywhere else she chooses, with the wardrobe of fitted jackets and gorgeous dresses with no Xs on the labels? 

Who IS that girl who passes up a glass of wine for water with lemon, and walks past the cheesecake and muffins to get to the fruit plate?

Who IS that girl with collarbones, slender ankles and just one chin?

OH my...it's ME!!

And I can't stop smiling, as the scale moves into the 140's. Century club is so close I can taste it, and it tastes better than popcorn or chocolate!!

Thanks everyone. I know it's been said before but WLS is one of the best decisions I ever made in my life! And I know I wouldn't have been as successful without the people on this forum.
