that between my pre-op and post-op weight losses, I have officially lost 101 lbs!!

I know some people wouldn't count the pre-op weight loss, but it's part of my journey and I think it should be counted. :)

I just want to thank you all for your support during this time. There were days I wanted to give up and then I'd get little messages etc and it made me want to keep going.
