Before Surgery

[Simpley_ke 201]

I have a question to all that have been sleeved or recently sleeved. Did you take pictures of yourself before just to know where you started and to say you came from point a to where you are now? I don't know that I want to take a picture of myself at my heaviest but the fact of knowing how far I've come would be cool I guess .. So picture or no picture ?!

I plan on doing this over the next few weeks up until my surgery on 11/1. I definitely want a reminder of where I came from. And I plan on taking pictures during my journey as I lose.

So are you going to do like one picture per week ?

Absolutely! I took pictures in a basic outfit that fit me at the time, and then I took pictures in a too tight outfit so that I could track the clothes getting bigger on me as I lose weight. I thought it would be fun to have these mementos! I love it when post surgery people post their before/after photos.

True , very true .. I think I will take pictures to track my progress and too know where I started !! How long ago were you sleeved? And how much have you lost if you don't mind me asking ?

I've been taking pictures once a month. The transformation is amazing to look at!

OH YES! DO IT!!!!! I took pics before my surgery and then each month I took pics in the same clothes until I had to wear something different because they were just way too big. It isnt fun taking those first few pics but they will be treasures when you see where you began and how far you have come! DO IT!!!!! I suggest to take the pics in the same place each time with the same clothes or similar clothes (pretty form fitting if you can so you can truly see a difference)

ALSO, measure yourself! All over! Keep these measurements and update them each month. This will be nice too when you are in a stall to realize that your body is changing even if the scale isn't! DO IT!!!
