Last "before" Photo I'll Ever Take!

[NewMissB 14]

My surgery is on Thursday and I'm super excited/nervous. Tonight my boyfriend took photos of me to help inspire me, and help me keep track of my physical appearance throughout my lap band journey. I said that this would be the last "before" photo I will ever take, and I am so glad that my band will help me accomplish this...along with hard work!

Has anyone else taken "before" pictures to help inspire them? Did you find that it helped?

Yes I did. I can't see that much difference yet, but did have my boyfriend take a new set of pictures now that I've lost more weight. I am keeping the same outfit to wear in the pictures, so that the changes will be more noticeable...

I took before pictures also. Mine were just a few weeks ago... I can't wait until I'm at goal and can look back to compare.

I've decided to wear the same outfit every time, too. Can't wait till the tight exercise pants are actually loose! Lol

Good luck to you both! I think the photos will really help psychologically with being able to see the weight coming off, just my opinion....I never have my photo taken now, so this will be different.

I didn't take any because I really hated my picture being taken. Luckily the dr's office took a front and side view and I had them send me the file. I had my before and after side by side picture as my profile pic and now I don't even like to look at that picture anymore....no more going back!

You guys are smart to take them, nice to see how far you have come!

But a picture is worth a thousand words and your side by side was very inspiring! I can't even stand to have my profile pic on here, that's why it's a nice Hawaiian sunset instead!
