You are beautiful before and after! Congratulations on rocking your sleeve. Life gets better and better!

Thank you!

:)

What a change!

By the way, I LOVE your sense of fashion. You seem to have the best dresses no matter what your size! I love your profile pic, the black dress when you were pre-op, and your post-op black one. My fave though is your profile.

So inquiring minds (MINE) want to know, "WHERE DO YOU SHOP!?!?!?!"

Also, if you tell me, promise not to get mad if you see me in one of YOUR dresses. Imitation is the best form of flattery!

Thank you! I love clothes and always have - even when it was a struggle to find cute things that fit. My profile picture is a bridesmaid dress from David's Bridal, I think. The black linen dress (before pic) was a clearance find at Torrid and the black dress in the progress pic was from the Dillard's clearance rack ($49!). My current fave places to shop are Old Navy, Gap outlet, and Ross (for dresses mainly) - I love a good deal!  

WOW!! You were beautiful before but ooolala look at you now!  Isn't it liberating!! Keep up the awesome work.  Low carbs is a big key....you got this! Congrats

Thank you! And happy 6-months to you as well!

You are an inspiration!  I am about your size and will have my surgery on 10-22-14.  I can only hope I do as well.  You're a lovely lady from the beginning, but now you are glowing.  Just beautiful!  Continued success on your journey!

Thank you! It's so hard to envision what the future will be like when you're at the beginning. The time will fly by and, before you know it, you'll be 6 months post-op, too! Good luck to you!
