I was perusing the board earlier and I see some people have lost an incredible amount of weight in approximately the same time frame since I have had surgery and I was feeling low. So, I went back and looked through the pictures I had on my computer and saw how much I had really lost and how much better I looked and that the numbers are just that. Numbers!
So, all in all, what I am saying is if anybody would like to go look I just put up some new pictures. :)

Never compare yourself to others and like you said, all they are, are numbers. You have done amazingly and 66 lbs is wonderful in the amount of time you have had since your surgery. I was the same way and could never see the weight loss on myself until I looked at pictures. Do them regularly because they do keep you focused and motivated. You look amazing and you look great in your new jeans!
By my calculations you have lost 57# in a little over 3 months! That's HUGE!!!! When in your life have you ever been on a "diet" and lost 4#/week?
The beauty of this is it's not a diet but your new way of life and we have this amazing tool that not only helps us succeed but stays w/ us for permanent success.
Keep up the good work. Great pictures.

I know the feeling of wanting to compare yourself to others. I also feel like a lot of people here on OH seem to lose their weight at lightning speed. But you also just made me remember to remind myself of the progress I have made since being sleeved in August 2011. I do look a lot different. We need to be proud of ourselves gurl because we have all accomplished a lot!
