Thanks for the picture montage Marimaru!

The two pics on the left are my heaviest (not pregnant) around 240+. Top is a few weeks after giving birth to my daughter in 1999, and the one below that with her pasty white little nakey butt is the same weight (!) without the baby excuse. My face is red from sitting there all fat in the heat, I feel as bad as I look...fat and miserable. Since then I had another child and ended up around 240 again. No surprise.

I did manage to lose about 20 pounds before banding, and the Front, Side, Back views are at 223, the night before leaving for Mexico.

On the right is So-Far. I was around 208 at that pic, see stats below for current weight but I look about the same at 194 as I do 208...well, maybe my big belly has gone down a little bit :)

So glad to have these updated!!!

First Pic - Here's me & my handsome man before my band (uh, and before he bleached his gorgeous hair.)

Second Pic - Us this weekend tearing up the Las Vegas Strip. I wish he'd go back to his natural Pepe le Peux hair like the stinker he is. VERA... I'm wearing my princess ring!

Okay...here are my before and "in progress" pictures. Can't find the ones my sister took of me in Mexico. When I do...I'll post them.

Pleeeeeaaassssssee....can somebody fix these so they are side by side or something close? Thank you so much!

The first is my top weight when I was still unhappily married at 330 pounds. My surgery date weight was 299. The 2nd is last year and I think I weighed about 318 at the time (notice I'm hiding behind my dear son). The last is me now 54 pounds down!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
