    The best present I gave myself this year was my sleeve. I've lost 96 lbs. - still have a few more to lose but I am feeling fabulous. Here's a picture taken almost a year ago last September at my son's wedding. I knew then that it was time to do something.

    Well ... I thought it was time to upload some pictures since today I hit the 70 lbs. lost mark!

    My surgery was on Novemebr 4/14. After a rough start I finally settled into life with my new sized stomach and things have been going pretty well since the beginning of January. I've weathered a few stalls and expect there will be more to get through before I reach my goal (150 lbs.). I am so happy to have made the "sleeve" decision.
