Side by side photos

I had a new work photo taken. That's the only picture I have of myself before beginning my pre-op, so it's my "before." I was shocked to see my new photo. I almost look gaunt. I don't think either photo looks like me.

You do nt look gaunt you look great.

I can understand not feeling like either picture looks like you. When I was larger I always felt I was smaller. Now that I am smaller my face is a completely different shape and I look different from pictures of myself. I had a round face for most of my life and that is no longer the case. It has taken me a few months, but I have got used to my new face, but still sometimes I catch myself in the mirror like WTF.

It gets better with time.

You look fantastic! Congratulations on your hard work and how far you've come.

You look great. And catch all the flirting....lol


You look great!! Not gaunt at all, very handsome. I know the feeling though, I thought my face looked to skinny at first. It just takes sometime to get used to it. I still catch myself doing a double take when I see my reflection, lol.

You look great congratulations
