OzRoo 1,492 Posted September 13, 2016 Wow and Wow !!! What an amazing change, you look a different person. Awesome work. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melyssafaye 181 Posted September 13, 2016 Thanks. I'm not done yet, but seeing the pics side by side brings it home for me. I'm proud of my accomplishment but at the same time I cringe at the before pic. It's deeply embarrassing but I'm trying to get over it. Day to day, I don't see the difference. But there are times I catch a reflection in a store mirror and don't recognize myself. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carlaw 82 Posted September 13, 2016 Don't be embarrassed by your old picture. You are the same person. You were beautiful in both! We have an illness. We now Have the tool to fix ourselves our disease. We cannot hate on ourselves. Maybe I should take my own advice. We are all too hard on ourselves.
