5 Short months

  • Popular Post

I have always been camera shy for many reasons, mostly due to my weight. This little collage shows me 8 days prior to surgery, the second is 1 month post op and the last is this my 5 month post op picture (this week) .

I can't believe the changes in myself in only 5 months. The old me would NEVER post pictures of myself. While I haven't lost any pounds in the last 2 weeks , I have dropped another pant size, going from 20 down to 12 so far. I love my sleeve, it's been life changing for me.

Thanks for compliments, you've made my week!

Outstanding!

Incredible progress. Good for you :)

Your point about avoiding the camera and the "old you" never posting photos really hit home. I can really identify with that.

I avoid the camera, delete photos and never post them... hopefully that will change once I gety surgery, get back on my journey to healthy again, and get my confidence back again :(

I also avoid the camera like the plague. That really resonated with me , too.

You look simply stunning and thank you for sharing your pictures.

WOW!!! Amazing job!
