I'm Feeling Foxy!

DeLarla... It took me forever to figure it out!!!

I will post a long explanation here in a minute.

I have to do it step by step to remember what I am doing and I am SURE there is an easier way of doing it.

  • Right click on picture you want to edit/post to LBT. Save the picture in your MyPictures folder on your computer under a name you will remember.
  • Do the same for the second picture that you will want to post side by side.
  • Right click on the picture that you want to be your “Before” picture and choose EDIT.
  • If your before picture is too big or not the right size you will need to right click on the picture in your folder and choose Open with Microsoft Photo Editor. There you can resize, rotate the pic.
  • OK, back to step 3 where you want to start with your before pic. Make a box around you and right click and Cut. Start a new file and paste your before pic.
  • Save the new file as what you want your before and after to be (Before and After)
  • Go to your After Pic and right click on it, choose edit. Do the same, make a box and cut you out. Open your Before and After File and paste the after pic. Move it over to where you want.

Do you know what a inspriation you are to me? I am sure there are many more out here that you have helped with your threads.

You should feel foxy, because you are a fox.

PS woulden't mind finding a man as fine as yours for myself. Count your blessings in that area. Trish

I have one more that I think is hideous... this thread just chokes me up so much. I went shopping at Nordstrom yesterday and tried on some regular size XL shirts. They are snug, but they fit. I've never, ever, ever - not even as a teen - shopped in a normal store. Ever. I didn't buy any, but I did blow a wad of dough on myself. I mean a WAD.

People, if I can do this, anybody can. I've been obese since childhood and if you dare me, I might "consider" posting a childhood picture. I'm not sure if I can bring myself to do it because it's very sad. Very, very sad. So if I can lose weight after 40 years of being morbidly obese, then I swear, anyone can do it. Anyone. Just let me kick your ass into gear.

I dare you!

But what about starting a new thread for it?

Sharing those painful pics with each other may cause a positive reaction... ???

Heather, I'll dig out my childhood pic of an abused & neglected scruffy 175 pound child that will make you cry. I can't explain how you get on the right train, but you'll find it. I look better now than I did in grade school. Just eat 4-5 ounces of Protein this morning, then drink tons of Water. Sure, you might feel a little hungry, but a huge salad is just a few hours away. You can do it girl!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
