I just had my daughter take my "before" pics.... omg I can't believe I let it get this bad.... denial is a terrible thing.

I can't wait until Monday to start my journey!!!

im scared to take my before full body pics.... I keep telling my fiancé I want to do it today, everyday for the past week.... eee I will do it too ..... soon :/ Good Luck!

TAKE THE PICTURES. At almost two years out, I wish I had taken my day before pictures. I now share those "preVSG" vacation pictures to other SoCal citizens who are considering WLS.

You will be amazed at your changes. Do not be ashamed of where you are today, please. You are not ugly, horrible or in denial. You are making a change. Be proud of yourself!

Beautiful comment, iegal!

I took mine right before surgery too and was so shocked. What I saw in the mirror and what the camera saw were two different people. I'm so glad I did this and you will be too. Best of luck on Monday, I'll be pulling for ya

I couldn't take before pictures, I just couldn't. I know I'll regret it, but the shame was too powerful.

Take the pictures! I did..one month out..omg..there is a difference...take all your measurement..butt ...thigh..arms..waist...neck...I did...hated the numbers...BUT 1 month out I had dropped 11.5 inches off my entire body

..if I hadn't I honestly wouldn't have known. In my mind..I was the same...I am obviously not the same!!!!!

That was one of the hardest things for me to do- that and my video blog made me do sad to see myself like that - hang in there!
