Everyone has a tipping point. For me, it was several things. This picture kind of helped me in making the decision to get VSG (see below).

Needless to say, I've attached an image . I think most of of have seen it. It's a comparison of two women who have undergone a full medical scan. On the left you have a woman who is 250 pounds, on the right, a women who is 120 pounds. I don't know their ages, nor height, which is always a factor, but looking at this picture it's just shocking.

When you look at the two scans you quickly see the following on the scan of the obese woman:

• Her stomach is much larger
  
• Her head is larger
  
• Her hips are much wider apart
  
• Look at the spine at the back of her head
  
• Look at how far apart her feet are due to the weight around her tights and knees
  
• Her ankles are bent (which could be due to the extra weight)
  
• Different brain activity (see two white spots)
  
• Lots of undigested food in stomach - Don't know about you guys, but I don't miss it!
  

This picture is motivational to me. If there was a possibility of a third picture of a woman about 250 pounds, that would have been me. I know I close to that 250 pound pic which motivates me to keep going.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share the picture as motivation to everyone out there.

So happy that I have lost so much of my weight.....

This is truly the right decision for me to help lose my excess lbs.......

Thank you for sharing this pic!

It truly helps put things in perspective.....

Holy cow, what a visual. I'm so glad I got my sleeve and am on the way to HEALTHY!
