Congratulations! What a wonderful achievement. I can't wait until I am able to do the same. Especially the crossing the legs. It's such a womanly thing to be able to do, so I can't wait!

Jennrus, I notice that your Pre-Op weight and your goal weight are the same as mine. I'm 5'0 are u also in this height range?

If you have before and after pics, would u mind sharing them? I'm only asking because I'm very excited and eager to see what i'll look like when I'm small enough to actually cross my legs again.

:-) Congrats on your accomplishment. It's crazy that something so small, (for others) is a huge deal for us.

Working on pics. Will see if i can figure that out tonight.

Yay! Look at you go Jennrus! Congrats!

Aren't the small things the best? They keep me going. I can now cross my legs, not for too long, working on the muscles to get stronger. I can wear clothes I used to and I held onto either cause they were really nice and I wanted to be there one day or they are clothes I bought before surgery as goal clothes and they are fitting now!
