My surgery is tomorrow and so far in the last 3 months on the dr monitored diet I have lost 53 pounds. I was feeling different and seeing some NSVs, but then when I took my preop photos, I was disappointed because I didn't see a difference from my starting photos. Until I put them side by side.
The starting photos were after I had already lost 11 pounds, but were when I finally decided to proceed with this option.
I have never let anyone but my husband and kids see this much of my body and I wasn't planning on sharing at this point, but then I realized that we are all here together for support. And dang do I need the constant reminder that I am doing this for a reason and I can't only show the good photos or else I'll still be hiding and denying. So here they are. Top line is starting photos 42 pounds heavier than the preop photos on the bottom line.
PS all those bruises on my legs are just from having to inject heparin three times daily

Hello

First of all I want to say congrats that you will be having Surgury tomorrow for a better life and most important your health. You will feel so much better in so many ways. I do want to say that take one day at a time. Everyone loses weight differently and do not be hard on your self. Losing 53 pounds before your Surgury is great and I was able to see a difference in the pictures. Don't put yourself down. Be positive and think of all the great things to come. Keep us posted and best of luck. ?

Good luck with surgery and your journey! All the best!

Thank you[emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]
