shesh, I've been trying to resize these pictures for an hour...........I think I finally figured it out.

The first picture is me at 330 lbs and the second picture was taken a few days ago at 270.

Hopefully this works! I am nine months post-op. :rolleyes2: The before picture was taken Thanksgiving 2006, I think it is on the bottom, the after was taken this past Christmas.

Why are my pictures so big? Can someone tell me how to fix them?

I found a pic of me from April 2007, at highest weight of about 380+

And one from December 2007 - hovering around 305-300 pounds.

(I'm 294 now.)

Hey all, it's been a while. I'm quite stalled in my weightloss. I'm at about 1 pound per week. But you know what: when I gave away all my 22/24's for the new 16's I bought (with room to spare) last week - it feels pretty damn good. Ok, so I'm not a size 4...but I'm very proud of myself. I don't know when I'll be 'done'...but that's ok.

I'm due for another fill in a week - and I'm looking forward to it.

Again, as always - thanks for your support!

Hi all, I am new to this forum. I have lurked here for a while and I finally got to a point where I felt I should introduce myself and post some progress pics. I have put in alot of hard work over the last six months, but I have a long way to go yet. Everyone here has impressed me with their progress and I hope to inspire others. I haven't gotten the signature thing worked out yet, or the ticker's, but I am down 76lbs and 18% bf since July 4th. And I hope I did the attachments correctly, I apologize if I didn't.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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