So lets do a face to face Friday! I also had some non-scale victories this week. My daughters teacher from the last 2 years did not recognize me! And my fitbit is on the last notch so I need to get a size small band now! Geez I really hate the older picture. I can finally stand to have my picture taken now though!

@ALFxRNY Your jawline is definitely more defined as well as your temple area. (I notice that area because I was so happy when my glasses no longer left dents down the side of my face! )

lol! I don’t even see a difference in the temples but my sunglasses did start falling off of my face! It’s odd seeing the definition coming in!

I didn't see the change in my face for the longest time. Then, one day I just looked dramatically different. I remember I was in a restaurant restroom washing my hands, I looked up and for a second I didn't recognize it was me in the mirror.

My face was the absolute first place I noticed. When I glanced in a mirror, I saw my mother!

Your mama probably was a pretty lady. I look like an ugly relative I would just as leave forget. The Old saying was : Beauty,is skin deep, Ugly,goes through to the bone. Well some bones are starting to,peek through. Don't,like,my color, not jaundiced but,not,healthy either. I LOOK SICK! It's now Sunday and I have been? puking off-and- on for a day-and- half now. Like Judy Benjamin in Private Benjamin " This is NOT the ARMY I joined!"
HELP!????

I’m only 11 weeks post op now. I still don’t see too much of a difference but I’m down 57 lbs (32 since surgery). The left pic is the day of surgery, the right was yesterday (before putting on my makeup). I guess I have a neck and more defined cheekbones now, lol. You all look awesome

You guess correctly! Your face is really changing!

Did your team prescribe Anti nausea meds? Stay hydrated!

Yes Zofran 8am-4pm-10pm. Not,sure it didn't come up,along with everything,else Saturday.
I asked my son Tomkitten to heat me some organic vegetable broth, every thing including protein shakes, sickens me today. His answer: come fix me. pancakes(as in pure carbohydrate ville) his rationale- it keeps me. from getting pneumonia. Gee thanks!

And yes, I keep trying to drink, propel tastes like sodium bicarbonate aka baking soda, the other lo/no calories dri,ks unapplealing and i,loathe plain water if it is warm. Like a little coolness it it. Its like being dropped into a dancing. contest,and you've never danced that dance before.

Three months out and 40 lbs down. Started at 210 and 160 currently. Feels excellent. ♥️

Oops I’m 50 lbs! How did I mess that up! ?

You look fabulous. Can I ask which procedure you had?

Almost 5 weeks post op RNY. Feeling great! Had to search high and low for this pic, haha. You know how it is. But it's nice to see some changes happening.

Pics are 2 mo ago and today.
