These were taken about 8 months apart. 1st pic is not so flattering but I didn't have too many clothes that fit at the time. Hope I did this post right! CAN SOMEONE HELP ME GET THESE PICS SIDE BY SIDE? THANK YOU!!

**notice the cheerleading skirts in the bottom right hand corner of pics, those were mine from high school, about 11-12 inches wide, maybe a 22 inch waist....ARG!! They won't even fit my thighs now...:confused:

My DSiL was kind enough to snap this one at the family reunion two days before surgery...:omg:

post-207166-13813133263521_thumb.jpgHere is a picture of me in July 2004, one year prior to my banding. I wore a size 30/32 shirt (3-4X), size 30 jeans on a 5' 2" frame.

post-203981-13813133263763_thumb.jpgThis second pic is 2 months after banding September 2005. Down to a size 2X, some 3X's, size 28 jeans.

I will post more recent pics asap.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
