I am sorry you are not happy about where you are. I am 5'3" and my goal for me is 150 lbs and I still have 30 lbs to go. Yes I am disappointed that I didn't get to goal by my 1 year anniversary but I am so happy with where I am. I think some people think that loosing weight will change everything, there life, money, job, looks but it doesn't you will be the same person just weighing less.
I wish you happiness and prayers that you find peace.
Love and Prayers

Julie,
I hope you're feeling better. Your after picture looks like you are in a lot of pain!!!! The end result will be worth it though.
Take Care,

Hey Toni, Don't be so down on yourself. I am 5'5" and I weigh 172. I am not at goal either. I have about 22 more pounds to go. But I don't concentrate on that, I think about all the weight I lost. I went from a 26/28 to a size 12 right now. If I don't loose another pound I would still be happy because I am thinner now than when I got married 12 years ago. If you ever need to talk just e-mail me. We can help eachother!!!
Hugs,
Christine

I looked at your pics while I was eating lunch...lol. It helped cut some calorie intake...lol. I can't wait until I will have my TT. My surgeon says not until the end of this year. I am only 15 pounds until goal. I have lost 135 pounds in my first year post-op. I am so excited for you. Keep up the good work.
Hugs,
Christine

OH SWEETIE....I wish I could give you a hug. I agress with what someone else said...you are looking in the mirror and seeing the turmoil you feel in your heart portrayed in the mirror. YOu are not ugly at all....Have you thought about celebrating my giving yourself a treat by going and trying out a new hair do (this is not a hint...I am a cosmotologist and I know it always makes people feel good), how about going to a make-up counter for a make-over or a manicure. Maybe a new outfit too. Think about what an amazing job you have done over this past year and please try to be proud of all you have accomplished. I would also make an appt. with your pcm and talk to him about how you are feeling....I am sure it is just your brain taking a little while to catch up with what the mirror TRUELY shows. You have lost more then I have and I am the same height so I am sure you are a cute lil thing. Keep your chin up!! HUGS!!!

WOOHOO..I figured out how to add them myself. The only problem is that I have to appoligize for the size of them. I will cut them down and fix them later. I only have 2 before and 1 after...the day after I came home. SO If anyone wants to peek....I hope you are not too grossed out.

I was miserable but what a year it's been. It has flown by. I feel great and I feel normal though I need to lose 10 more pounds for the BMI scale to say so! I have gotten so much encouragement from reading the boards and learning from those who have gone before me. Thanks for sharing your journey(s) with me. Here's to a great year to come!
