...to checking out "Before & After" WLS pictures on the OH site.  Is this just a pre-op thing?  I guess it is one more facet of the motivation leading up to surgery....I just love seeing the success as people progress through all the stages!angry

I am addicted to checking them out, too! In fact, I have it filtered so that it only shows before and after photos of women that have had the same surgery as me. I find myself sizing up people with similar body shapes as me and trying to guess what I may end up looking like after I lose weight.
