Before Photo's

I did not take any before pictures. I hated the way i looked and did not want any pictures of it. Also i do not know how to post pics on this site . Why is it that you can`t see a lot of the pics people post. They won`t come up when you click the x.???? Donna

I think photos are a good idea just to see how well you are doing, I had a great laugh with my husband who took shots of me in a bikini before I was banded. These are for my eyes only, not to everyones taste- lol. My need to lose weight is more for my health and not so much about how I look this will just be an added bonus. Keeping a diary is the best thing, that way you can keep a record of measurements and the benefit to you health. I am already less achy in my knees and ankles so this spurs me on.

Be proud of what you are all doing, you are taking control:clap2:

Hey Crazy4jags-

I know what you mean about making an enterance. Sometimes I get a sting when I see how big I am in the picture, and then I shrug it off. I tell myself I am really not that big. It must be the clothes I am wearing. I have a million excuses. I think I like being kind to myself; it is always better than the alternative. I do have to admit that when I am thinner and there are no more excuses I will be much happier.
