Half of Me - A Pictorial Reminder

  • Popular Post

Sometimes it's good to remind myself that even if I'm not exactly where I want to be, I will never go back.

I thought that reminder might be helped by trying on the 1 pair of pants I kept....a size 20, down to a 4.

So here's a visual of what it looks like to be literally less than half of yourself, given that I've lost more weight than I actually weigh now.

I have to say I quite enjoyed the reminder :-)post-182723-14221373090954_thumb.jpgpost-182723-14221373211954_thumb.jpgpost-182723-14221373345269_thumb.jpg

You look great! It doesn't look like you had trouble with saggy skin. Did you? Thx

Thank you! I actually do have some excess skin on my arms and stomach that I am hoping to have removed once I get to 18 months post op in March.

You look fantastic!! Congratulations on a job well done!! You should be so proud of yourself.

Love the pictorial reminder! Keep inspiring us :-)
