This is from my before picture taken about 3 weeks ago that I haven't really looked at until now.

I just have one question.... when did my belly button turn into an ass?

Angie, you are a blast! That made my day. Seriously - I was grouchy today about this whole eating cottage cheese and Soup crap (will it ever end!) and I saw your post and laughed so hard I peed my pants!

I took some before pictures, but wasn't brave enough to take one of my belly button - now, I'm seriously tempted!

Could be worse... your spouse could be rubbing her hands all over your shaven stomach, chanting "Buddha... Buddha... I pray to thee."

Well that was a full body bra and underwear shot, I just cropped it down to there. That was bad enough, NO ONE needs to see the full monte. :cursing:

My husband keeps bugging me to do a sports bra and shorts "before" picture, but I'm scared!

But looking through the Before & After picture section of the forum - there are certainly those out there who are showing us the full monte! :cursing: Wow. I appreciate their bravery!

I wanted my before pictures to really show how FAT I am. Most people you can't tell because it's only a headshot (which is all the pictures I had of me, too!). I want DRAMATIC before/after shots. :cursing:

OMG you made my stomach hurt from laughing so hard.:) It is wonderful to have such a fabulous sense of humor and be willing to share with us. I think you made a lot of people's day.

It will great when you can compare the new to the old.

Hehe, you could consider doing two sets of before and afters? I am doing mine that way. I have one set in form fitting exercise type clothes and the other in my skivvies that will be just for me and DF's eyes only. :)

it's good to have a sense of humor, the good thing is that this will not be how your body will look like in a few months, so it's not you, it's the fat version of you.

I have a mental idea, I like to think that I live in a future where I am thin, I'm just wearing a fat suit and I'll be taking it off soon.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
