Thank you so much for sharing your story and pics...you should be so proud of yourself!!! I will admit, the kin removal surgery pics look extremely painful...but u said it was worth it...what makes this story different from all the other weightloss sucess stories i've seen is that I actually know you are a real person! I grew up in school withyou and know that you were never the skinny girl you are now (at least not on the outside...inside, you knew who you were meant to be!)
ReplyDeleteThanks Miranda!! We did go through hell and back with each other but I blame a lot of that on us being unhappy with who we were. If you have any other questions just facebook me.
ReplyDeleteGlad I found your blog. I am in Wichita Falls too and it is good to hear a story for someone that has used the same doc I am.

ReplyDeleteAwesome Violet! I only used Dr. Warnock for my skin removal. Good luck to you on your journey!
