I will send you a pre-op shot some day..found one last weekend and it made me cry! Hugs Kristy ________________________________________ Kristy, Listen to me!! I have seen all the pics you've sent. I showed the last one to Tom, and he said you were a doll. I know dr. K says he doesn't fix our heads, but you are an absolute beauty. You have a natural beauty that just shines. No way would I have ever believed you were ever obese. Please do send me the pic. As far as how we see ourselves, I have had some people tell me I looked good lately, One even asked me If I was planning to not lose any more weight(I wanted to ask her if she was blind...LOL). As much as I've lost, I have to look hard to see it. I mean, To me, I'm still the 433lb teenager that people called moose and whale.... Some days, I feel slender and think " Damn, I look good " , but all it takes is one thing to make me very critical of myself. Maybe it's because we judge ourselves harsher than anyone else can.... l am on a lot of revision boards, mainly because l have noticed many of them, when the older people get their revision, they leave and there are a lot of people asking questions and I try to help any I can. I am so surprised when people address the questions specifically to me and ask me what I think. They tell me I'm so sweet and caring and smart...Really boosts your ego....But all it takes is one person to tell you that your mean and uncaring and hateful, to make you stop and wonder if everyone thinks of you that way....I do have to say, though, I am my harshest critic. Anything anyone can say to me, I've probabally already thought to myself. Girl, take it from me. Listen to what people say(the good stuff) The bad stuff they say(If there is any)....it's just jealousy!...LOL.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Thanks Mel! Kristy is a beauty, isn't she? I'm so frustrated! I've been eating less and I'm still gaining. I just don't know what to do. Maybe I'll have to do a true Atkins diet for a couple of weeks or something. Sigh... Tracey > Oh, Tracey, I soooooo Totally agree!
