your skin looks amazing!!!! and thanks for sharing the back pics! that's the one part of my body I really really don't like, and your transformation is making me feel so hopeful that I can lose a couple of these rolls!

I just decided to post pics for the first time tonight....I am embarrassed about the first pic, but figured oh well, I'll do it anyway.
I'm about 4 1/2 months post-op and hit 76 pounds down as of yesterday. The first pic was about 3 weeks after my surgery and taken in Sept 2016. The second pic was taken this morning. I was in a bit of a hurry, so I apologize for the angle. I am so grateful that I made the decision to have this surgery. It was one of the best things I have done. I still have a ways to go, but I am confident I will get there!

I haven't posted here! I figured I might; I'm still only a couple months in, but I finally am starting to see some change, so...

My before pic, around ~317 pounds, last spring.

New years eve! Down 50 pounds~
And then because this pleases me mightily, two pics in the same dress:

First one was about the 2nd day of purees, I think, so probably down about 35 pounds total? And the second, just yesterday, at almost 60~

115kgs to 71kgs 10 months out

Loss over 200 lbs here is before and after

Each year one my sister, my grandma and I have this small ritual where we go up to Brussels and walk around to visit the Christmas market and also buy the last Christmas gifts, and I have pictures from last year before the surgery and a picture of yesterday.

So, voilà!

Hey y'all!!
Long time, no talk - training for a half marathon and work has been insane lately!
My two year surgiversary was November 20th, and I tried on my old Cotton Ball dress because it was hanging in my closet, lol. (Cotton Ball is a southern cotillion ball - traditional thing with debutantes, etc. - I was 17 when I did it).
Left is from my wedding <3 that dress is a size 28. The one on the right is a size 8; I'm generally a 6 in clothes, but bridal runs small!

Some before and "during" photos!

Left is about 2 weeks ago, mid-Nov 2016. Right is late Oct 2014, about 483 in that pic. Almost 10 lbs down from highest weight!

Just some face comparisons.

One month post op and feel great!!!

This is just a shot of my head/face of before and about 7 months post op. I am down about 80 pounds so far.
