Please put a photo up
I was there. I know what it is like to want to hide from a camera. I really like seeing the before photos. That gives us a reason to watch your profile and see you change. It is like watching a baby grow. I want to see the baby and the beautiful person you become. You will be shocked. I thought weight loss wouldn't make hardly a difference. People didn't even know me after 6 months. I had to say. Hey its me... :)

Many do not want their photos all over the interwebz...and this is a public/open site. Anyone can read. It's not a case of hiding from the camera, it's a case of protecting your privacy.

Thank you. The fact that anyone in the world can copy and paste a photo of anyone and put it on a very bad site is enough to make me very uncomfortable. People will do what they are comfortable with and shouldn't feel the need to be there for someone else's needs. I too love to watch the progression and am happy that not everyone is as suspicious as me. But I am just grateful to those who post pics and don't ask for more. these pics give me a sense of what I can look like after a successful WLS.

Sorry Karen it wasn't for my needs. It was so I could encourage them.

Oh I understand that. That is why I did not use my real name. If you feel like that and want to protect your privacy I agree. Wasn't giving people a hard time. Just wanted to cheer those who were embarressed. Thanks for showing me the other side. I never say anything I wouldn't shout from the mountain top on the internet. I don't use my real name. Real first name tho. That is it. Don't need any creepers.
