I was talking to my friend today how i lost 57 lbs since my 10/26/09 surgery but i was telling her that I am not seeing SUCH a huge difference as everybody else is saying. So she told me to do the before and after. We had a party at our office today and there were pictures taken of me so i decided this would be a great time to do the before/after and what I saw...i have to admit I AM PROUD OF MYSELF!!!!!

You are doing great! I understand about not feeling it about yourself, because I am the same way. I have to look at my driver's license or my ALMOST before pic to see a difference.

Wow! You look great! Sometimes I feel the same way too. It takes a while to get used to the complements- so I had to learn to say... Thanks! Like thats so tough, but I am still practicing.

You deserve to feel proud of yourself. That is a huge difference. I have some good news myself. I went to my 2 weeks post op appt today and I am down 17 pounds!!!!!!!!!!! WOW, I am so glad. I wore some sexy red heels and a cute skirt to the appointment with my husband. I felt sexier so I wanted to look sexier. How many sizes have you lost???? :smile:

You do look great! The psychologist that's part of the wls team told me to take a pic. once a month. I've been doing it in my bathing suit. I am more excited for that then to step on the scale. The difference each month is significant. Keep up the great work!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
