Brina, girl, this is just for you!

I also look in the before and afters when I am having a crappy day, and today is one of those days. I have been doing so good with the food and today I made a lot of wrong food choices. I have learned not to dwell on those days and tomorrow is a new day! I guess I'll start the thread with my pics, I can't wait to see everyone else's pics!!

The first picture is me at 330lbs, the second is me at 260lbs. I still have such a long way to go, but I'm confident I can do it.

I am bumping this so it doesn't get taken off the list.

Okay guys, we need more pictures! Keep the inspiration coming!

Well - here I am at my heaviest (about 275) - white shirt. The second one is a little more recent (about 260) - it was taken at Sun Studio in Memphis in 2006 (that's the microphone Elvis recorded on-whoohoo!) and no I cannot sing (at all!). Once I get to the "Progress" stage, I'll post more.

That's a nice pic, Leslie. I don't know if it is the angle or what, but it seems those 15 lbs have made a big difference!

Thanks! Yea - I HATE that first picture...it is really bad - I probably weigh more than 275 - that was an estimate. I had stopped weighing myself at that point (post newborn). I don't think the shirt helped matters. I don't wear that much cotton now - prefer more of the style of the other picture - makes me look a little thinner and covers those "problem" areas :-)...Hey AllyKat - Where are your pics?? hmmm?

Leslie, you look great!! Big difference already! Keep up the good work!

You look gorgeous already, just give it a gew months and you really will be fabulous!

Thanks girls! Ya'll are too sweet...you made me feel good.

Bumping so we don't lose this one.

Nearing my 3 months post op on thursday- thought I'd take some progress shots. First pic was taken in december at 376+ pounds- second was taken today at 335 lbs!

Mia - You sure can tell you've lost 40 pounds. Your face really shows it. You're looking so good! Keep up the good work, your wedding day will be here before you know it.

Mia, you look great! I can tell a big difference in your face as well. Congratulations on the weight loss, you are going to make a beautiful bride!

Thanks guys! I love taking these pics as I can't REALLY see it in the mirror yet but I can see it when I put them side by side.

You know, that's what I do if I am having a really bad day with the weight battle. I look at my before and current and I can really see the difference. It keeps me motivated!

Mia, you're looking good! Wooohooo.....

You can definitely see the difference in your face, Mia!

I think it is cool how everyone always looks so much happier in their after and during pics. Have you noticed that?
