I avoided cameras for a long time, so when I went looking for a before picture, there wasn't much of a selection. Can't believe I didn't purposely take one lol. Ah well. Here's the few that I found. Hope this works :/

The first one is me at my heaviest, 262lbs/119kgs. Notice my hand in the bag of chips lol.

The second one is me at 105kgs, I believe...

Here are my before and now photos. I cannot even tell that I've lost over 50lbs! It's very depressing for me to see these photos, not to mention that it is a HUGE step to post these on the internet. I can see my weight loss in my face and in the clothing sizes that I'm able to wear now, nontheless, I don't like looking at these photos.

Speaking of faces, I thought this was an interesting before-and-after. The one on the left was taken in 2001, and the one on the right a couple of weeks ago. Even I think I look younger now! :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
