Alright folks, it's been 2 months, who else is going to be brave with me and post some "WIP" photos!

Until I saw mine I didn't have any idea that there was a visual different to how I looked.

But on the brave boots, show me what ya got!

Thanks for seeing it guys, cause I still can't really. That frustrates the hell out of me. Not seeing the weight loss.

I have lost 22 pounds! nothing is loose on me so I wont bother post a picture. I still have a long way to go before I see any visible effects. I am still wearing the same clothes!! I was wearing pants size 22w while weighing 296LBS, I currentyl weigh 274LBS and I am still wearing the same pants - they are not even loose at all - not even extra comfortable... they are exactly the same..... so I wonder where the 22 pounds came from!!!

I believe my weight crept up on me because I was able to maintain the same wardrobe through time, I can still fit in some of the stuff I wore when I was 250LBS!!

I've been so reluctant to post pictures on here. I have no idea how to post a picture on here. lol. So if there's nothing, I apologize. BUT, if all has gone well....the first picture was my Rockstar Debut in NYC back in July 2006 and the second one was taken two nights ago. My family had been anxious to see pictures of me and wanted me to compare. I didn't realize there was much of a difference, but seeing the side by side, I can see the improvements. Woo Hoo. This is exactly what I needed as I haven't noticed the scale moving in a few weeks and I am scheduled for a check-up next week. I try not to dwell on the scale, but I can't help it. I'm feeling better and that is by far more important than the number on the scale.:Angel_anim:

I'm gonna give this a shot.. This is a pic from last year at the Willie Nelson concert in Austin Texas. 365 pounds.. I'm going to get a pic this weekend of me at 295..

attaching picture

What day is your visit, I am going in on July 2 at 9:30am. And I need a fill. The scale hasn't moved much for me either.

You look great too!

ok.. it ended up as attachment.. Let me work on this.. hopefully you can open it.. and then I'll put up new pic this weekend.

Thanks very much, Chrisann. I'm going in on the 2nd too! But not until 1:40pm. :thumbs_up: I haven't had a fill since probably late Feb/early March. I don't know what level I'm at...something like 7cc. I still have occasional PB episodes so I'm reluctant to get a fill. Like I said, I try not to focus so much on the number but I'd gotten used to losing the 1-2 pounds a week. But I have gone out more lately and not made the best food choices and I haven't been drinking as much water as I should. So I really can't be TOO disappointed. I choose to believe it's the fact that muscle weighs more than fat and the weights I've incorporated in my workout are paying off. heeehee. We'll see next week. How are things going with you?

I am at 6cc, but can eat in the AM now, so want a fill. Its not the scale I am focusing on either, its how much I am able to eat. Still making good food choices, but eating more than I should be.

I make AM appts because they see you pretty much on time. When I make the middle afternoon ones, I am always there for a while and wind up missing a few hours of work. With the AM appts, I get to work around 10am.

When I have been hungry after eating a meal, I have been eating fruit. I don't know if that is good or not but I am usually satisfied after that.

Thought I would throw in a recent pic. From vacation...My 6 month banniversary is tomorrow. Thought I'd be down a little more than I am, but still trudging along. Go for another fill on Tuesday, that should help some!

Oh my goodness! I just realized that tomorrow is my 6 month anniversary too! How quickly time has passed! Looking good NukeChik! I just got another fill last week and I think it's too much. Just started back on regular foods today and I've had a TERRIBLE time. Going to give it a week to see if I can adjust though.

I forgot to take a picture this weekend for my 6th month bandiversary. I know that I am down to a size 20 from a 24 in pants, so that is better than a picture in my mind....:thumbup:

You guys have been so brave to post your progress pics as you've gone along, and I've finally worked up the courage to do the same. The pic with the solid green shirt was taken the day before surgery at 259 lbs. The lavender shirt was in early April at 230. And the one of me with my boyfriend was taken last week at 209.
