Cathy, it's great that you are getting pictures started, it really helps with

the reality checks good and bad. I know that when I look at the old pics of me,

i never want to be that person again. I love who I am becoming now. Not just

with the weight loss but so much more.

Hi all,

Well, my husband took my picture at our nephew's 13th birthday

party. I actually didn't remember it at the time. But on Christmas

day, I asked him to take a few pics of me with my digital camera

before we left the house to go my parents for Christmas.

I made a photo album here on this site. I put two pics in it so

far. When I look at them, I feel like the lowest of the low, and

horrible and disgusting, and ugly.

I wasn't always this way. I have a wonderful photo when I was 143

lbs and I looked GOOD! I felt great about myself then and was happy

with my weight. I actually had a 28 inch waist! I could see and

feel my collar bones, the same goes with my hip bones.

I figured I finally had to have a starting off point, and came to

terms with the fact that I did need some " before " pictures.

So they are on here for all to see!

I can't wait for surgery! That's for sure!

Hugs,

Cathy
