I have never posted pictures on here because I never wanted to put out what I used to look like as I am no longer that person. I am a new person but have come to terms that I wouldn't be who I am today if I hadn't lived life as a larger person. I also know that when I started out looking at other people's pictures were such at motivation for me so I am hoping these will help someone in return. The picture of me at my largest was after I had my son. I had lost a significant amount of weight before my day of surgery which is the pic of me looking grumpy and in pain.post-194281-14703925898335_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703926043776_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703926264269_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703926414944_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703926550158_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703926674968_thumb.jpgpost-194281-14703927622662_thumb.jpg

I am two weeks post-op today addition to be honest i find looking too far forward scary. I am excited and nervous, excited at the possibilities and nervous as to the unknown.

Your photos are an inspiration. You look great.

Great job . I am 14 months out and I have dropped a lot of weight but I have been at a stall for the last 3 months . Gain 2 lbs lose 3 then gain 2 ? Did you run into that?

Absolutely. It is very common especially after the first year. The weight falls off without any problem and then you hit the stair steps where you fluctuate. My Dr. always says it's ok as long as you don't see the scale go up and up and up lol. But usually reevaluating what I am doing helps. I will bust out the food journal and whatnot.

Even though you were big back then, just looking at you, I could already tell you were a beautiful lady. :)

And look at you now! So gorgeous!

I agree with the others that you look wonderful...but do you mind me saying I think you were beautiful before you lost the weight. What a great smile! I am proud of you because we all know that losing the weight isn't just for beauty but for health. Congrats again!
