Hi, all - can't believe it has already been over four months since my VSG. I feel so fortunate that I've had an easy ride... I'm not the fastest loser, but I will take it - 56.4 pounds down since my surgery on 3/10/2011! And 68.6 down from my highest

Sometimes I don't really "see" what a big difference there is in my body when I look in the mirror. For some reason, it is much easier to see it when I look at pictures. So - here are pictures of me the night before surgery, and at the four month mark. Those things on my neck in the recent picture are called collar bones... I was unfamiliar with them until recently ;-)

You look beautiful! I can definitely see the difference. I've noticed something else besides those collar bones.....look at that empty space between your arms and your waist! Congrats on the great work!
