|  6 days post-surgery photo
Someone suggested I take a full-length shot every month or so to see my progress. Here's one from today, 6 days after surgery. 221 pounds. Please excuse the red face--I reacted to the morphine by developing some fever blisters on my lips and nose!

That's my daughter's Chihuahua, Rascal, near my feet. I hate taking pictures, so he was looking at me like I was nuts!

Carene~ you'll be a shadow of your current self in no time. That's a great idea about taking monthly shots for comparison.

You will be amazed by the weight loss. The pictures will also amaze you while you lose weight too. You will probabably not see it but we will. When we lose weight we still see ourselves as the same, but other people notice it before you will. So if you post a picture each month we will be able to see it before you will. When I look in the mirror, I do not see as thin as other people see me.

You look great and so happy ... 6 days out Congrats!!!!
the month to month pics are great... it's amazing to see someone's transformation following their surgery.... it's an inspiration to those looking into surgery, waiting for surgery and a great motivator to those who have already had surgery.
Can't wait to one day have my own pics to post!!

AWesome, the monthly pics are great to have and so is the monthly measurements. If your surgeon didnt (or did) measure you, I would do it now for yourself.
I have a spreadsheet right on my desktop and and update it every month. It really helps once your stalls start lurking! Congrats!!

Great idea, I wish I had taken more pictures. Save those jeans, they will be fun to put on later on, you will swim inside them!!
