how about we do before pictures so we can put names with faces??

Here's my before pic taken on Ole Years night 2007 so a week ago!

Here are a few photo's of me and my hubby.. lets see, first one I was about 250.... wedding pic I was about 275 and the one of us on the bench showing my rather large rear-end I'm about 285... I'm about 290 now. Since I'm fat everywhere I hide my weight pretty well I think :-) and when I mean fat everywhere, I mean.. I have the biggest calves in Texas. No shit. Matter of fact, I might have to do a calf challenge if anybody thinks thiers is bigger. Luckily, calves can be hidden... LOL

Me too, I am fat all over. I have huge legs according to my mom. I am 5'8" and my calves and thighs are solid. I am hoping that when I start losing its all over evenly.

Well, my waist is 13 inches smaller than my butt, so my waist is probably the smallest part of my body. Which, in my renn faire garb, its more figure flattering when I wear my bodices. Though, this last 20 pounds has actually made my belly pretty flabby! I was perfectly fine at 250, but once I got over like 270 it was just too much...

I love your wedding dress.

Great idea guys. The first one is from December in New Caledonia and the second was from November in New Zealand.

Sorry this is the only picture I have. I took it a couple of days ago because the docs office wanted a before picture. It looks horrible but since I put on even more weight in the last 6 months I have had no desire to make myself pretty (makeup, hair, ect).

This was this summer...it is my son and I infront of the White House on our DC visit.

Everyone looks gorgeous already - Imagine the after shots!!

The photo in front of the phone booth was taken in London in August 2007 and the other two were taken in Colorado in November 2007

Everybody is so cute!! :clap2:

We are already hotties and when we get banded we will be healthier and even more hottiesque!!

Ok... I am biting the bullet and posting my picture. This is from last week.

I can't believe I am doing this. This is my official start photo from my highest weight (308 lbs, 11/18/2006). I started losing on my own, threw in the towel and got banded 11/09/07. I am down to about 260is now. No photos since being banded, down about 27ish pounds. I will have to do one soon.

I absolutely love this thread! Here's me in April '06 at one of the least heaviest weights I've been. I think I was a mere 275 when this was taken (did I just say "mere"?)

And here I was just this past Thanksgiving Day 2007 at my all-time heaviest of 298. I'm the one in the orange holding the pie:
