First off, let me say, I love my post op-ers, they are great answering questions, eliminating pre op jitters and have great hints and tips and more BUT when you post answers filled with wisdom, helpful tips, funny responses or comments or even your own personal progress, I look to your page to see your personal details or "Your Story" and some don't fill out all the information and MOST OF ALL......

NOOOO PICS?!?!?!?!?!? :o :o :o -_- :angry: :P and in this order this is how I feel when I want to see post op updates and before and afters and progression pics and there are NONE!! You all know how us Pre Op-ers are...we wanna see!!!

Feel free to share here.....Thanks guys B)

Wow!!! Amazing transformations! I gotta say, both of you look so much younger in the after photos...one if my fears of losing weight is that I will look older (loose skin, more wrinkles)....y'all give me hope :)

Post-ee's...keep those photos coming! Such wonderful inspiration for those of us starting our journeys!

I FEEL younger! Almost immediately after surgery someone said I looked younger - that made me feel good.

Once I started working out (not just walking, but working out), I feel so much better, not as fatigued.

I've noticed a difference in my skin since surgery - especially my face. It looks so much healthier.

I'm far from a beauty queen, but I see improvement - most of all, I smile more.

You are so right. The problem is I literally can't find before pictures of myself. The few that I have I have strategically placed other people in front of me blocking everything but a sliver of my face. I made it a whole art form to avoid taking pictures of myself. I see some people here who actually took pictures of themselves literally right before surgery. I wish I had thought of that. I guess I was so preoccupied with the surgery it didn't even occur to me.

I am 65, wife is a kid of 62, these operations and using our heads with food and exercise took decades off of how we feel and put many years on to our lifespans, I am sure.

We are having a ball...we went from near stop to ludicrous speed! :D Yeehaw!

"I made it a whole art form to avoid taking pictures of myself. " lol that's funny and I think I took that class 101. I mostly only have face pics but I will definitely take some day before surgery pics...

maybe ask friends or a family member, you know they always catch you when you least expect it but they may have some just for your own personal tracking...

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
