Took a progression picture today...

After much deliberating, I finally got the courage to have my husband take a picture today. I was motivated by another poster who posted a face picture. I wanted to see if I could see a difference in my body....I think I can! ;)

I am on day 39 after surgery.

Thanks! I was scared to compare pictures because I feel great and didn't want to be looking too soon. I think I look less "bloated", lol.

I feel the same way 12 wks out and 50lbs down

You look great! Can totally tell the difference!

Keep up the great work!

I think you look great! I can totally see the difference in 39 days... it gives me hope of what I have in store for me once I get banded. Thanks for sharing!

I know what mean about courage.

I didn't like my pic taken when I wasn't fat!

You can totally see a difference and you look great.

Lovely children, too!

Thank you so much everyone. I love having a place to come and share! It helps keep me motivated. This journey is getting really fun at this point. :thumbup:

The psychologist that is part of the lapband team told me to take a picture once a month. I recently took a 2nd pic and see a difference. I started a scrapbook to keep a record of my weight reduction. She also said to keep one "fat" outfit to help see how far you've come.

Oh my YES, you can definitely see it. Congrats!! You're doing awesome...keep up th great work!
