You look amazing!! I can see a huge difference, especially in your face and shoulders. You've done such a great job, what an inspiration!

Such a great update!! The difference between those two photos is so impressive! Really makes you see why it's so important to take pics. You must be feeling great! Fitting into old clothes is the best!! So happy for you. Congrats!!

Thanks e!! The pics are so important. I didn't intentionally take any pre-surgery pics... I'm so glad I had a bunch. I didn't really shy away from the camera pre-op (although I cringed at what I saw). It was amazing when I looked back because I couldn't, and really still can't, see the loss otherwise.
How are you doing?

I'm the same way! I can't see too much of a change and haven't taken any new head to toe photos yet but I did take them pre op so I will have them to compare. I was so happy to see your post because there's a significant difference for sure. As of today at 6weeks post op I'm down 45lbs and very happy with that progress and very happy with my decision overall. I've had a bit of dumping from pork in particular or meat that's not moist enough but other than that no food intolerances. I'm craving fresh veggies so much but have had a little cucumber and a little fresh fruit (blueberries, watermelon, and raspberries) so that's been helping me. Other than that my only complaint is hormones seem haywire. I missed my period this month and have felt like I'm having the worst PMS the last couple of weeks. I guess hormone dumping? It's not been too fun for me or my poor family who has to put up with my moodiness. I've always suffered bad PMS but this is next level and no end in sight! But, like you, clothes are fitting better and that puts me in a good mood and overall I'm super optimistic about this process. Just have to keep reminding myself that it's just the hormones and this too shall pass. I hope!! Haha
