Why I Hate Pictures

It wasn't until i looked at some pictures i took the other day that i realized how much weight i had gained. I mean the scale has been reading 248 for awhile but in my mind i didn't feel like i looked like i weighed that much until i saw the pictures. untouched photos do not lie. :biggrin:

Hi Dark_Lovely,

I sympathize...I've seen some pictures of myself from last summer, before I was banded, and I'm quite frankly horrified. I had NO IDEA I was that big - like you, I thought I "carried it well". Rest assured, though, the next pictures you take after you are banded will be much different! Don't forget to take your "before" photos and take photos during your journey - it's important to keep a realistic picture of yourself as you begin the journey to a healthier you!
