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.

Great job! I was just banded by Dr Marsden this past Monday and very encouraged by your before and after pictures...

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
