Pre Op Pic Thread!

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 :)

    I know we all start somewhere but I dreaded putting these pictures up before I had the procedure

    You don't have a bad body. I look about the same but after surgery my stomach went down a lot & I didn't do anything to my stomach it was magic. Now I have even less. You will look so good & feel so great. Give it time. I need 36 more pounds.
