Before and after pics
I have added some after pics, not sure how to shrink pics to fit my avatar, but wanted to share these pics and hopefully encourage someone that is considering wls. My heaviest was 264 and now I weight 162 pounds and have only 12 pounds to go to get to dr. weight goal of 150. Yeah!!!!!!
I am completely off my blood pressure medicine and feel so much better.

Thank you so much for the comments, and your doing great as well. Great to know someone is so close that has been through this, do you have a support group you go too? I go to Integris Support, next Saturday, we are having a clothing exchange, people bring their clothes they have outgrown and exchange them for others, everything is free. I have gone from a 22 to a size 12 and some size 10's. I am so pumped, and feel wonderful.
Let me know if you need a support group, you are more than welcome to come to ours.

Thanks for the offer. I go to the weightwise support group and although we don't have a formal exchange...informally I have been blessed with a ton of new to me clothes from our members. Isn't it great to be able to help each other with clothes? I can't wait to pass on the clothes that are too big for me.
