    Default Before and after pics....

    I finally got a good look at my before pics (I avoided looking at them) but needed to see how far I've come. I still hate those pictures but now when I compare them to what I look like now, I'm very pleased. I've lost almost 60 lbs now and feel great. I have energy, I have confidence and all my co-morbidities are gone! Having this surgery was the smartest thing I ever did and I am so greatful that I had the means to get it done.

    You are so little now!
    Too be honest, you don't look so big to me in the 'before' pictures. I have lost 33lbs and am still much heavier than you were. So I'll be really happy when I get to your starting weight -- don't be down on who you were, you did the best you could.
    But my now, what a fabulous change you've made in yourself with the help of the sleeve. You must be able to get around much better.
    Thanks for posting.

    Great job! My BEFORE bathing suit pics are HORRID, but once in awhile I look at them to remind myself of where I never want to be again!

    You look wonderful! I'm starting at about the same weight you did but I am much much much fatter through the middle...I think I am a bit shorter than you! I can only hope to do as well as you have! You've worked hard and you look great!

    Thanks, I know I should be proud of the changes that I made to help lose this weight. And I am.....just can't help thinking (as I look at those pics) that I was as big as I was. Makes me even more determined to never get that big again (but with what little we can eat, I don't think it's a possiblity......)
