The barely dressed photo.....I can't believe I am doing this!!
Ok, Here are mine. (Yes, I stink at taking camera phone pics...)
Before:
Now (5.5 years out, down 190 pounds, after brachioplasty, panniculectomy, mons lift, and tummy tuck). You can see that I naturally have a wide waist and that I still have two little spots of residual fat above my waist on both sides (because I did not want to pay extra for lipo when I paid for the tummy tuck):
The side view amazes me every single day. I cannot remember EVER in my life having a really flat belly.

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
LOL. I thought you would like that!
My belly button, with the skin pulled down from the panni, looks weird... But I don't have the same rule about it as I do about the thighs!

OMH!!! 1218 views......all you have to say is barely dressed and photo and they can't stay away I always said that if a peeping tom ever looked in my window he would deserve his eyeballs being burned from seeing that sight.
Your belly button looks fine to me!

You look wonderful!!! I had a TT and I am still not brave enough to show myself on here!! I never got as low as you and wish I had - oh well, I am still 100 below my highest weight and healthy, so I will be happy!!! Thanks for sharing.

Oh my god!!! Look at you three SO inspirational, you all look absolutely amazing, I hope to be as inspirational (and brave) with my pictures and my words one day!
thank you!!
You WILL Scarlet! On top of that you will have the experience of the difficulties and coming through them as a vet that will be valuable as a member of this forum for those having a hard time in the beginning. Many of us who are here now as vets don't have that.
How are you doing now?
