Here are a few photo's of me and my hubby.. lets see, first one I was about 250.... wedding pic I was about 275 and the one of us on the bench showing my rather large rear-end I'm about 285... I'm about 290 now. Since I'm fat everywhere I hide my weight pretty well I think :-) and when I mean fat everywhere, I mean.. I have the biggest calves in Texas. No shit. Matter of fact, I might have to do a calf challenge if anybody thinks thiers is bigger. Luckily, calves can be hidden... LOL

Me too, I am fat all over. I have huge legs according to my mom. I am 5'8" and my calves and thighs are solid. I am hoping that when I start losing its all over evenly.

Well, my waist is 13 inches smaller than my butt, so my waist is probably the smallest part of my body. Which, in my renn faire garb, its more figure flattering when I wear my bodices. Though, this last 20 pounds has actually made my belly pretty flabby! I was perfectly fine at 250, but once I got over like 270 it was just too much...

Great idea guys. The first one is from December in New Caledonia and the second was from November in New Zealand.

Sorry this is the only picture I have. I took it a couple of days ago because the docs office wanted a before picture. It looks horrible but since I put on even more weight in the last 6 months I have had no desire to make myself pretty (makeup, hair, ect).

I can't believe I am doing this. This is my official start photo from my highest weight (308 lbs, 11/18/2006). I started losing on my own, threw in the towel and got banded 11/09/07. I am down to about 260is now. No photos since being banded, down about 27ish pounds. I will have to do one soon.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
