Mandylove 32 Posted August 29, 2013 I'm approaching my one year mark in November and I remember looking forward at that point to my 21st birthday, which was last week, and wondering where I would be. I am -45 pounds and couldn't be happier. My body has lost weight in places it never has before. It hasn't always been easy but I have stayed strong and done whats best for me! -45 may not seem like a lot in terms of WL surgery but I'm am all around healthier, have more energy, and Confident!! I wanted to share my journey to inspire some of you to make the decision to change your life. Wether or not that means surgery. I regained control of MY life and it's feels amazing! SW: 241 CW: 196 thanks for reading! 5 blondegal_, michpell39, KAATNS and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
