Visual reminders (pics) to use my tool!!!!!

What a transformation.  I would never know it was you.  

I look at random online pics of fat people to inspire me.  I am not photogenic no matter what I weigh.  But, for good or bad, I never really disliked how I looked at any weight.  My own pics don't do it for me but I know what I don't want to look lke.  Those random pics really get to me.

Hey (((M)))!  I look at mine pics almost daily now as well as other people pics in an attempt to get me motivated again.  I would have never guessed that three plus years later that I would not be at goal.  I hope this will make the newbies realize that if you don't work the tool, it will not work for you. 

Same beautiful smile then as now!  That's what I see. :-)
Good luck Faith on your continued success....  You can and will get those last 10-15 pounds off!
You have done well my dear friend!!!!  What a beautiful transformation!!!!  Pure BEAUTY inside and out!!!!

(((((((M))))))) Thanks, I really am glad to have you in my corner.  My BF and I have talked about a road trip this summer to your area.  I will call you within the next couple of days.

OMG... I have a picture on a clear pocket in my calendar that I carry with me and I def need to utilize it as a reminder

 You are an inspiration.  I will not allow my inner fat girl to win so much from this point on.  I need to be on point and get to my goal and I know when I get there it is still going to be a fight to remain at goal.

Faith, you have done so well with your weight loss, this is why photos are VERY important to stay on track with weight loss, it reminds us where we can go back to if we don't stay on top of things, I keep my fattest pics too, lol...even tho I gained some weight back I am far from where I came from,. I am beginning to lose weight again after eating sweets like I was drug addict, but thank god my band did not allow me to do much damage, you are sill looking great keep up the good work!

Hey (((N))) my other band inspiration sistah!   Thanks for the support.  I have to admit there has been a time or two where I wished that I would have gotten the gastric bypass.  However, I realize that it is no fault of my band...it is a "user" error and not a "band" error.
