So - I had my daughter take my "before" pics yesterday. I'm trying so very hard not to look at them but holy SCHITT.......I don't think I really realized how large I am until I saw ALL of me. I'm going to try hard not to obsess over this. I've been telling myself I'm "not that big" for so long. Thank goodness surgery is in 17 days - this needs to go!

Also, you will all get to see these as soon as I have a progress pic to compare them to!

Welcome and Congrats! I took some before pics but I am only 17 days post op. I think I will wait till 3 months before posting a comparison.

I'm gonna wait as long as it takes to see noticeable change. I already regret the years I've wasted being so large!

That works, we will be waiting to see,an Update. Bet,you,will look like "Wowsers!", and like many of us you will look like your own sister or daughter. Me I will still look like someone's grandma , but 2 positives. I will have a s***-eating grin across my face and I will be upright and breathing, that was rapidly becoming a non-certainly prior to my RNY. So Glory Glory for what it is worth!😛📦😛🎁📦What a Gift!

Legged, never Lead in a quarter 🐎 horse. Back when I was a Baby Frustr8 I asked " if they are only 1/4 horse, is the rest mule?" then other person said that is they can run a quarter- mile very fast. What a relief , I thought maybe they resembled a creature from mythology.😛🐎😛

It’s hard to wrap our heads around our true sizes, especially “before”. I never really let myself think about it or kept any pictures. I just saw some Thanksgiving pictures and I look about the way I always think of myself. BUT, I’m down 67 pounds so I know I started out a lot bigger! I’ll be sure to take some after photos when I’m down another 67.

What a journey, huh? I feel brave and I know all of y'all are! I've always been strong - physically and mentally, and I really hope that will help me soldier on here!
