Talking This is what I look like!

Hi, everybody! Well, I'm finally getting around to posting some pic's of myself -- just to prove that I do, in fact, have a face and a smile! This was taken a couple of months before I got diagnosed, before I got down to 206. In these pic's, I was actually around the weight that I'm back up to at the time of this posting -- 222. So.....here I am, bad hair day and all!

Yipee!

SARAH! You know I've been bugging you for a picture since last summer - I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy you posted this! I think you're gorgeaous - drop dead gorgeaous. The 1st pic you look like a much prettier and younger Rosie O. And I just love the 3rd one - you look so happy!

Hehehehe! I'm so excited - I saw Sarah, I saw Sarah!

Oh now, go on you flatterer....no really, go on! I really WAS happy in that picture -- that's why I chose it for my avatar. It's a nice memory. I had had REALLY bad allergies that day, so my eyes are really puffy and my nose is red from multiple sneezing fits -- but at least these give you guys something to go on! I'm actually still looking around for some pic's of me at 284 -- like a lot of folks, I was a bit more shutter-shy back then. But when I find something, I'll post before and after's in the Progress Pic's thread, so you can see from whence I came! Obviously I still have a long way to go, but in these pic's I'm down to a loose size 18 from a size 26/28. Since I've gained with the chemo, my size 16's are now just too snug, but I'll get back into them before too long, I know.

Wow Sarah, you are gorgeous! Almost exactly what I pictured you looked like, too. Weird, huh? Thank you so much for sharing. Celina and I have been bugging you for ages, now our inquisitive little minds are appeased. Yay!!

How are you doing? I keep up with your blog and all, but thought I'd ask anyway. How's everything going for you?

Like Dana said, you look almost exactly how I'd pictured you! How does that happen!? Thanks for sharing a pic, I've always been curious. What a gorgeous, radiant smile! That third picture is how I will always think of you now because it just seems to embody your entire beautiful spirit all at once. Just lovely, thank you Sarah.
