A little motivation (before/after pics...let's see 'em!)



Recommended Posts

I thought it might be some nice motivation for us if we did a pic update (before/current). I have to admit I have been feeling down about losing the weight much slower, so I went through some old pics and suddenly I feel better! I'll go first:

August, 2009

You think your weight loss is slow? Then I hope I have "slow" weight loss, too! ha ha! Just kidding...but really, you have lost 40 lbs since August, and only banded for 2 months... I don't think that's slow at all, especially since you started at a lower weight than many people here. You're doing great.

I was banded on Sept 16th, the picture on left of each thumbnail was taken the weekend before my surgery. The one on the right was taken the weekend of thanksgiving at my grandfather's funeral.

WOW Willow!!! You look amazing! You've lost so much since June, you should be so proud!

I'm not in the 'after' stage either. About 40 more to go, but it's good we're all taking pics to keep track of our progress.

Congrats again on your weight loss! You've done such a great job!

Well this is not exactly an after because I still have about 40 pounds to lose before I'm where I want to be.

So this is my before on the left from about 3 years ago and at about 300 pounds. Then on the right is my current from a few weeks ago. I was about 202 in the pic. I am currently at 199. Yay!

Wow! Ya'll look GREAT!!!:smile2:

Don't be discourage, we're all just in this less than 6 months. I know in all my past diets, there was no way I stuck to it that long or lost that much so ya'll are doing great!

I started my pre-op diet on Dec.8, 2009 & Banded on Dec.22, 2009. I'm down 30lbs.

**gosh, sorry these pics are so dang big, I have no idea how to resize. Sorry.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
