Cunninglinguist 181 Posted July 13, 2015 Hi everyone, I am Andrew from South Africa, I had my surgery on the 9th of Feb and I am down 76kg (167lbs) since this whole journey started in November last year... This has changed my life so much, I have never been shy or an introvert, and have had alot of success in my life professionally and personally... But since the weight has come off, and still going... My feet have not yet touched the ground... This desicion was by far the greatest one I have made.. In 33 years of existence, I am truly alive now... I have been going through the stories and photos from you guys and girls... And you all look amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Candidate 3,215 Posted July 14, 2015 What an inspiring testimony. I can't wait until it's my turn to utter the iconic "best decision ever" phrase. It's become the equivalent of a rite of passage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
