When I look in the mirror all I see is flaws but with a real picture I cant deny the progress. Total weight loss 53 pounds. I am 5'4. 218 to 165 . 13 weeks out.

Keep taking those pix sweetie! I, like you, see more in a pix than by any other means. In fact, i don't see fat at all when I look in my home mirrors. It's like someone who is anorexic only sees fat when he/she looks in a mirror--only reverse. I truly see myself as thin, until I'm forced to face the reality of it in a picture.

It appears you are having wonderful success and you look amazing!

Sometimes you have to step back a bit to see the whole picture, especially when you're the main subject.

You're doing great and you've got the undeniable proof! Congrats!

You look great! I love taking pictures now! I used to hide behind one of my kids if I "had to" take a picture for the past 17 years.....now I'm taking pictures right and left of myself to mark my progress, pictures with the hubby, pics with the kids. It's remarkable too because I look so much happier.

Congratulations on your progress!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
