Hello! Have you noticed that I just changed my profile pic? I've been meaning to take pictures of my weight loss progress and time has gone so incredible quickly lately that it's already 2 months since my surgery and I haven't taken them! I remember that before taking the big decision, I used to browse for hours the before and after pics of people who had lost weight, and the thing that amazed me the most was not the difference in the weight, but the happy they looked. I used to tell my husband that I wanted to look like that, not skinny, but super happy and comfortable in my own skin. Many of you would say that I should be comfortable no matter what's my size, but I wasn't healthy anymore, and nobody can feel good in a sick, tired body... But look at me know... I see my eyes and my smile and I notice the big difference in me, I see myself pretty. It's not just that the double chin and the big cheeks are gone, it's my expression what makes me feel sure I took the right decision. I'm still half away from my goal weight, but inside me, the change has been done, nothing can stop the sunshine inside. And that makes me very happy :)

I'm on a bit of a weight loss thing too. Not that I want to be skinny, just more happy with how I look and I'm quite pleased so far. Good for you for that gorgeous and happy smile!

WOW YOU LOOK AMAZING DANITA YOU LOOK SO LOVELY XX CLAIRE
You look and feel beautiful, and that shows :)
Happy for you.
You are beautiful and yes you do look happy!!!
I think we are on parallel lines right now, about the same time you had your surgery I got diagnosed with gallstones, I had felt ill for months before hand and then it reached a peak. It was awful but I chose to go an a very strict diet rather than have surgery (it's an easy diet to stick to because breaking it means the return of terrible pain) and the weight has fallen away. Better still I feel healthier and happier than I have in such a long time.
I am also getting less camera shy because I know I will not be so depressed by the photos. Keep smiling danita and know that the world smiles back ;o)
A BIG HOORAY for you!! You are adorable! :) xoxo
You look awesome, Danita!

I'm a huge fan but have never commented. Can I tell you something? I always thought you were beautiful. You have a kind, warm, and LOVELY face. That's your face! You look especially happy now and, yes, beautiful as I've always thought you were.
Dear Danita, Congrats on the healthy, happy journey! You are beautiful inside & out & inspiring.
