I will begin my 12th month is 5 days. It has been HARD but I think I can say I made it! Size 4 long jeans (or kids 14/16) size small t-shirt (or xl in kids) I am learning still. This is never over. Everyday is a day that I learn something new about my pouch or my brain...

and i love it

what a goofy after pic

i still feel quite awkward in my skin. i went out today with "the guy" and i saw us together in the mirror and i didnt even know who the heck i was. he doesnt get it but he's trying to understand and thats the least i could ask anyone...just to try.
Never again will life be boring LOL. It is definitely a challenge. Once again, I thank you all for all of your support, for listening to my head noise, for listening to me whine and vent. I really thank god everyday for this site as i have not attended any other support groups in my entire year post op. Needless to say, that will be a part of the next step in my journey.
Thanks and I love you all
