Re: 1/2 way there and (gulp) pics
So I am an engineer and I am going to post my unfiltered response and apologize in advance if it offends you. The first picture I see, I see a very large, unhappy person who I would probalby avoid speaking to. In the second picture, I see a radiant, gorgeous woman who I would stop and greet and talk to. It's not the weight, it's the expression. Wow, how amazing. I am so excited now to get this surgery!!!

There's only one thing that I know how to do well and I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well and that's be you. Be what you're like. Be like yourself.
