I am not done yet, hell not even close, this is my life. My journey was a long one a rough one and one I will continue forever. I told "Facebook" it has been 6 months because for some randomly weird reason 6 months makes more sense to people when they see the amount of change..
How many times have I been asked "which surgery I did" I cannot count... When someone asks honestly and without wanting to label it I tell them in as much detail as they want up to and including my health, exercise, daily eating etc or to the simple "Eat Less, Move More"....

Oh I feel 10 years melted away, if not more, I am really enjoying waking up now... I want everyone who wants this to have this....

Left Feb Middle April on my 40th birthday and right was today...

    I'll be honest I'm not 100% sure my scale didn't go above 300 but it's over 80 pounds since I hit the 300 mark.

    Going on vacation next week and I am eating to maintain, so this goes out to anyone on a low calorie intake to lose weight. Once you hit maintenance the amount of food you can eat is like a buffet :)
    I honestly get a bit gross feeling eating this much but I can't buy new clothes again lol looking forward to getting back and getting back on the journey to the rest of my life.
