Just took pre-op photos



Recommended Posts

This is something that I will do as well but so that I can see my own progress. Unlike past times when I would berate myself for being obese to begin with, it's just to get my mind out of the "fat guy" mentality.

I did this recently too. Actually had my 5 year old take them so I look a little taller than usual, but he got a lovely angle of my quadruple chin.

My son took mine recently. That's the good part of it, the bad part, I was slumped in the recliner, sound asleep and didn't have,my dentures in. So,although I could pass for 45-50, in this one I look every one of my years and more.

I had my mom take mine today. Will take more tuesday as she is a bit under the weather.

It's a bit daunting to think about the changes coming but I am soooo ready!

The only thing I regret is not taking more pre-op photos! I used to avoid the camera like the plague! It made me sad. Now, I have very few photos to compare to

Love it :)

I’m sending mine off to be processed and returned by mail!

Funny - the bathing suit photo looked as I expected the photo I took in this dress I love but was always too small shocked me. It was not cute!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
