Two year surgiversary 12/16/11. No regrets. Time sure flies by!

Hi Steve. You don't know me, but I think you are an inspiration to us all.

Just what I needed to get me to goal!

Thanks for sharing your pictures with us.

Congrats on your 2nd year anniversary!

Thank you, Lucy!  Keep up the great work!

Look at you, thinking you're hot ****!

...

Oh, that's cause you are...



You're amazing Steve.  You've done incredible.

Ha!  Your post made me laugh!  For the longest time after my surgery the only women who would compliment me were in the 80+ age range.  Recently I've attracted a younger age group (less than 10).  Neither interests me.  Thank goodness I'm happily married!

I see you've lost your man-boobs. I'm guessing this wasn't as traumatic for you as it is for the ladies who have to deal with sock puppets.

It's amazing how camera angles and gravity help.  Everything pools to the sides when I'm lying down like a melted candle.  In public, the shirt comes off only after I'm lying down and goes back on before I ever sit up (or I'd scare/confuse passers-by needlessly).  Next on my list of to-do's is plastic surgery -- panniculectomy and upper lift.  Both areas make me very self-conscious.  Those I consider medically and psychologically beneficial (read necessary) to complete my WLS journey someday.  In the meantime, thank goodness for Spanx for Men.  I'd like more done, but it's more frivolous and just not in the budget right now.  I'll post preop pics when that time comes.  

Awesome, Thanks for sharing.. You look fantastic!!
