OK...came across some other "before" pictures that I thought that I would share, along with some very new pictures (taken last week in Vegas). What do you think?

I've come to this page many times looking for & receiving inspiration, motivation, hope... thanks to everyone who has posted! It takes a bit of courage, I'm finding!!

Nerves or no... here I am! Before = Jan 2006, 300+lbs; After = March 12, 2008, 237lbs, -80! (more still to go, but it's a good start!):

Everyone looks so wonderful! You are all such an inspiration!

I haven't posted my pics in a while, I haven't noticed much of a change lately but I love that you guys share, so I should too! I know how much the pics help me keep going...

I am almost 7 months out and am down 67lbs. I started at a tight size 24 and am in a lose 18 now. The best part....I have a waist again :biggrin:. Sorry for the lack of makeup with this latest pic....frankly I didn't care what I looked like when my friend snapped the pic this morning.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
