Let's post our favorite pics of ourselves BEFORE the surgery. I hope this can be a positive thread. Many plus size people don't like taking pictures. However right now this is who I am now and I love me but I have to get better so I can be around alot longer for my husband and kids. Post a beautiful picture of you and tell us a little about the picture

These are my favorite pics of myself. I felt beautiful in them but my feet were killing me in the heels and my girdles were suffocating me each and every time I sat down lol

I was about 315 and my surgery should be in August.

I can feel the excitement in your post!! Your getting married!!!! Yay!!! My last appointment for my 6 month supervised diet is Thursday! Then they file for approval, so I'm hoping very soon. In August. Are you on fb? I would love to keep in touch.

Can someone please message me how to post a pic to my profile...I'm much better looking than that silhouette!

I'm on my iPad using the app. But there is a section for profile and a tab where you change your profile pic

Me before surgery. I've never been self conscience about my weight but I'm trying to get healthier.
