SO I am going to try and attach a recent pic of me here...and update my photo album. I can see a drastic change in my face - but of course, I see it every day and I have to look at older pics of myself to really notice.....

Isn't it strange how our eyes take so much longer to catch up to our reality??

Beautiful!! I think you should use the same pose (the surprised pic) at different weights, it's such a cute pic.

U look great!!!

Definitly a difference!! You look great!

I feel the same way. I'm down 125 pounds (3 shirt sizes) and I don't always see it...

You look great! Keep up the good job

Im the same way, I dont always see it when I look in the mirror, I can usually only see a difference when I put a before and current one side by side.

Its funny though at my heaviest I knew I was big, but didnt realize until I saw a picture or lost weight how big I really was, weird how things are.

I never seen myself as a fat guy, I thought I carried it well lol until I seem photos weird ain't it

If u attach it'll post it

Look at your skinny cheeks and chin! Yep, big difference.

And I'm just shy of 2 years post-op and I still somedays have a hard time seeing myself as smaller. For instance I will hold up a pair of jeans out of the laundry and think that they belong to my almost 12 year old daughter who is 5'3" and wears a ladies size 8. Then it will dawn on me that they are really my size 12 jeans.

Shannon, you look soo great!! And younger! How fantastic you must feel!! (((Hugs))) You should give yourself a big hug! And tell yourself what a great thing you did for you, that your doing a great job!!
