Has anyone else noticed how amazing we all look in our profile pics?



Recommended Posts

For people who have large amounts of weight to lose, we all sure look amazing in our profile pics! We might not have mastered the whole eating thing, but we sure know how to find the best angles for our selfies :D Can't wait to see how great everyone looks 6 months to a year from now!

It's very clear that many WLS patients are world-class yo-yo dieters.

And their avatars are their skinny pix.

I think from the neck down I look a lot better, but there is no denying that I look old in the face. I've also noticed that even though I did not have any issue with hair loss, my has silvered drastically this past year. Don't know if it is related or coincidence.

I'd post me at my worst as my avi pic......but there's no way all that flab would fit within the confines of the tiny avi pic spot.

That's why I put it in my profile pics. Fat, tired, hurting and about broke down......just 8 months ago. No flattering angles....just a front and side pics of a guy who was ready to break free from that and reclaim his health and activity level.

Now......life is much improved. I can't even begin to imagine how much better it gets by Summer 2017.

Yup.....everyone please keep the faith and stick to your plans. You will be so glad you did. Life gets so much more fun and easy when the pounds melt away.

Lol my profile pic wasn't one from a yo yo diet or at my thinnest. My profile pic was taken about 2 weeks ago at my heaviest. It's a face shot. You don't see me posting full body shots...yet! Surgery is August 22nd!

      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...
