 Can't believe its been 1 year since my surgery. Life feels like a whirlwind. I've had so many successes in my career, family and marriage. I remember last year feeling hopeless and defeated. I knew surgery was the best thing but I was scared to death. I wrote my children goodbye letters in the event I didn't wake up from surgery. Today, I am more active with my children. I'm no longer the fat mom in the school and the fat lady in the board room. I've been promote from director to executive and I speak at various conferences. The old me would have never stood in front of an audience, but today I own the crowd! I laugh and smile all the time because I'm beyond happy with where my life is today! I wish everyone going through this process much success. You will not be disappointed!

Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

LaToya, You have just written my post even though I've yet to have the surgery. I have thought over and over about how to say goodbye to my son if by chance I don't come through this. On the other hand I've had so many positive thoughts about how much my life will change for the better and even if it doesn't how much I will be able to handle things being healthier. Thanks for posting!!!

You look amazing!  And I'm thrilled to hear your surgery has affected you in ways beyond the ability to wear a smaller size.  I think that's what we all hope for.  Thanks so much for sharing.  Best of luck to you.
