Before and After - Not For The Weak

Okay, so on July 3, 2013, I had gastric bypass surgery.  It was an easy decision for me and I got a ton of support and I continue to get support.  Today is exactly 6 months post surgery.  The before picture was taken in May 2013 while on vacation and the after picture is today in my favorite Old Navy clothes.  First time I have been able to buy clothes at Old Navy and boy does it feel good.  Enough is enough.....here it is....
                                                             

                                                            

80 pounds lighter.....

P.S.  I was just told by Sarah "Wow, you look really fat!"  Thanks Sarah......

      Thanks Kathy! I worry that people will think I took the easy way out, but I didn't. It hasn't been easy, just because I love food, and there are so many thing I really miss eating, but it was the one of the best decisions I've ever made and I feel amazing!
