Ok, I want to do a pin up type photo shoot. Should I wait until I am at goal or now to help me break free from this fat girl mentality??

Am I ready for this??

Also, check out this photographer and tell me what you all think! IS he good enough??

Whether you are fat or thin, you need to start loving yourself this very second. You need to know that you are beautiful no matter what a number on the scale says. You need to do nice things for yourself like manicures/pedicures, wear cute clothes, make plans with friends, buy something extravagent once in a while, etc. Treasure yourself and it is much easier to lose weight. I say take the glam pictures now and at goal.

As a photographer myself, I say do it now and later. Those will be priceless memories you will always want to remember!

Additionally, this pinup style is pretty neat. I do mostly weddings and families but I think I may start doing some of this!

If there is anyone here in the Little Rock, Arkansas area that would like some of these done, let me know. I can take the pictures for free since they will be for my portfolio.

If you are interested send me a pm.

I'm in the Kansas City area and after seeing BooBoo's thread would love to give this a try as well. If any of you photographers are in this area and would give me a discount give me a PM.

I'd also be more than happy to do some of this stuff free for my lapband sistas! :biggrin:

We need to talk! I would love to do this with you, but also if you are thinking of expanding your business, there is a pin up company that looks for women photographers to do pin up work. GREAT PAY! I want to do it someday, but you must have a pin up portfolio already! You could build it here and then get some $$ by doing it!

PM me!

I'm excited for you!! I've always wanted to do something like this. Maybe as a gift for DH, I'll set up something like this. But it'll be awhile. I'm not even banded yet :wink_smile:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
