3.5 mos out before and after photos

 I am three and 1/2 months out from surgery and just took some new photos this weekend. 

Here are some before photos from our cruise last summer when I was at my highest weight. (I tried really hard not to get into photos then cause I was so embarrassed about my size but I did manage to find these two.)




   


My husband and I were celebrating our 33rd anniversary on Friday, May 14th and my daughter took some photos. Even I have to say, what a difference. And the difference in the way I feel and what I can do is even more remarkable. 

Wow! You look fantastic! congrats!

WOW!!  You go, girl!!

 Thanks!  

wow you look wonderful!!

You look great!  I am amazed at how much younger you look already!!!!  Keep up the good work!  I just got back from a cruise and I have to tell you, cruising thin is a whole different experience.  So tell your hubby you need to plan a cruise for celebrating you reaching all five of your goals!!!

I love that you have the goals listed and you have the dates to show your progress.  Success is often measured by the scales along the journey but there are so many other ways to measure it. 

Congrats!!!

Huge hugz,

 Thanks.  Yep, one of my goals is to be able to get in one of those two-person kayaks with my husband.  When we went on our cruise last year, I had a bad experience when all they had were 2-person ones and they made me ride with a little woman instead of my husband.  It was embarrassing and broke my heart. Fortunately, I was wearing sunglasses and they didn't see my tears.  We are definitely gonna take another cruise and I plan to be much more active than I was last time.

You are right about the non-scale successes.  One of my favorites now is that I love to cross my legs when sitting.  I never did before I lost this weight.  haha There are many more.    

How totally cool is this!    You look fantastic!     You look wonderful, and so much younger. 

 Thanks.  I don't feel like I look younger.  I guess cause I can see the wrinkles and they don't show up in the photos.  haha

Hey, we all get some wrinkles no matter what.  A few of those are just signs of wisdom, not age!
