Guest guest Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Hi Folks, I have to share this with you! At last Saturday's MGB Support Group Meeting in Marina del Rey, CA, I had the great pleasure of seeing Anthea R. for the first time since her surgery last October, and all I can say is " OH MY GAWD!! " I literally DID NOT RECOGNIZE HER!!! Some of you may remember that this is the gal that I loaned my husband to, to accompany her to Las Vegas as her support person for her MGB, since all of her family lives either in England or in Boston. She had a successful MGB and returned home to Los Angeles, where she promptly started losing weight like a house on fire. In the meantime, she became extremely busy with work and with her new love interest, and and I had not seen her since that day last October when she returned from Las Vegas as a newly-minted Post-Op. Now, fast forward 7-1/2 months later. Crystal and I were sitting on a bench outside the Cheesecake Factory, waiting for the rest of the MGB gang to arrive, when this beautiful, slender, willowy, svelte, alluring, gorgeous, and did I mention SLIM young lady walked up and looked at me expectantly as if she knew me. I was at a COMPLETE loss as to who this fetching creature might me. So I said to her, " Am I supposed to recognize you? " Whereupon she said not one word, but whipped out her photo album and handed it to me. Of course, on the very first page, there was pre-op, obese ANTHEA smiling out at me. (Yes, she was beautiful, even then!) To say that I was absolutely FLABBERGASTED would be a gross understatement. I was TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY!!! I have NEVER seen a more drastic transformation in my ENTIRE life! She was beautiful before, but now she is drop-dead gorgeous! I still cannot get over it!! I have proof from my own experience that this MGB is a POWERFUL tool for losing the weight, but this goes beyond anything I have ever seen. CONGRATULATIONS, ANTHEA! YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!
