Family Photos



Recommended Posts

A few months ago, there was a thread I replied on where we discussed the one thing we wanted to do when we were almost at goal or AT goal. My "one thing" was that I wanted to have a family photo done that I would be proud to display in my home. Well, we did it...........although I'm not at goal, I'm within 20 lbs of it. So.....while the kids were here at Xmas, we had our family portraits done..........and I am finally proud enough to share them.........

So...........what's your "one thing" and have you done it yet????

Please share........

Wow ! You look like a model! Thanks for sharing! A true inspiration!

I have my surgery on 1/12 and think that a family portrait is a great reward when I near goal.

Thanks again!

You look fantastic! I am scheduled for surg on Feb 2nd and the new family photos sounds like a wonderful idea. I cannot wait to wear pants with a belt you can actually see instead of hiding my waist under long shirts.

Great photos!!! Congratulations!

Okay...here's my "thing" --

I go with my BFF's to the beach in June every year. This year I will wear a tankini and look HOT. Not because I want to find a man because I already have one (LOL), but just because I want to look good for myself. :wub:

You look absolutely wonderful. This is also one thing that I would like to do once I am closer to goal as well. We are going to Kuaui in less than a month and I am about 35lbs from goal but I am still going to enjoy every single second of it... That was my big present to myself.

      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... :(
