Update: Pics of my lowest Size and Current Size - My 7 Year Journey

I was called a liar today from one of the band bashers.... I have no reason to lie about gaining weight......I was told that my new pic was old...and I just wanted to show some of my older pics after I'd got down my my lowest weight since banding and my current pic of weight gain...but if I don't lose another pound -- I am still happy at 7 years

Size 8/10 was my smallest size since being banded Since 2007 maintained this size for 5 years and I had a few pound gain up and down over the years but overall I've maintained my weight loss give or take 20/40 pounds over the years....Anyhoo...off to bed now..I got a busy day ahead of me tomorrow.


Size 8 Dress


Size 8/10 Maintained for about 4 years



My new Chunky face and size 12/14 as of May 2012 vacation pics



At the Beach May 2012...I will post other pics when I finish downloading them...

Girl, don't even respond!  She is obsessed with you because she is jealous.  Just be glad she doesn't know where you live.  She's the type that see on those shows like "The First 48"  or "48 Hours Mystery"!!  Just crazy, that one!  And so are all those that responded positively to her post.  They obviously have one thing in common:  they're lonely, pathetic women *****ally have no lives. 

You look wonderful!!  Keep up the good work!!

I agree you should not respond to the remarks, you don't owe an explanation. We all read post and get to know who is just looking for attention and wanting to start **** You have done a great job and look fantastic.

you were beautiful before and after and now
thanks for sharing

where were you? the water is gorgeous blue...

 Thanks bunny that is that beautiful lake Tahoe in Nevada.

Eh, you know, even people who didn't have WLS can fluctuate a LOT over a 7 year period. You're still looking awesome!

This is all so ridiculous.  I mean in this day and age of digital photography any of our pictures could be faked.  We are on the intrernet...I might not be who I say I am....I might be a 16 year old boy!!!  I may have never lost the weight I claimed I lost and I just post pictures I photo shopped just to trick you all!!! 

We have to just assume we are all genuine people here telling the truth.  If they don't believe then they don't believe.... period. 

By the way you do look great!!!

First of all, you do look good.  You are very fortunate to have a beautiful face, regardless of weight.  You were beautiful at your heaviest, beautiful at your thinnest and beautiful now.

Second, why do you care if someone you don't care for calls you a liar about the date of your pictures or anything else on this board?  If it's a personal attack, hit the report button.  If it's just very disturbing to you, you certainly know how to hit the block button.

Third, I don't know if it was Michelle, MidwesternGirl, Wassabubblebutt or any other iteration thereof, but she is deactivated.  Poof, gone.  I don't know whether she self-deactivated or OH did it.

Finally, I'm glad your band works for you.  Period.
