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 everyone for the compliments. Things are still going great for me. I had my arm lift done in July and the results are phenomenal.

After the arm lift, I ended up gaining a few pounds but have since lost it again so all is going well.

These are my post op before and after pics:

*Pics were taken by my doctors office and are now on real self. She too was thrilled with the outcome. I would also call out that these pics were taken 3 weeks post op so I am still swollen! They are even more awesome now.....and yes, I am still swelling.

Brachioplasty was so worth it for me! I went shopping for a clothes for my business and I had so much fun trying on literally anything and everything fit my arms which was not the case before.

Before:
