Sharing before and After pics finally

As of this week I finally hit a normal BMI and i promised myself when that time came I would finally share some pictures. By the way, I still do not like having my picture taken but before I hid behind everyone and because I was tall it was easy to hide the rest of me. Now I definitely am willing to get in the shot and I no longer cringe when I see the pictures.

The only pics I could find before surgery were taken on a cruise with my hubby, Son and Granddaughter. These were taken 1 month before my bypass.

Thanks so much for your support everyone!

Wow!! You look incredibly wonderful. Congratulations on reaching that BMI milestone. Great job!

You look wonderful in both photos but healthier in the second. :) Thanks for sharing-I know it took a lot for me to share my photos right away but I am hoping it will be another way I can inspire myself when I see changes-Im counting down. Only five days until my surgery. Thanks for being an inspiration. :) God bless you and yours.
