In support of vlp's efforts, lets see some before and after pics!

I haven't posted for a long time, but before and after pictures were one of the things I loved most about this site.  Come on, show us your success! 

Lisa O.

Here I am 5.5 years ago at 335lbs.

Here I am in a picture that was taken for my surgeons website!  I lost 120 lbs and have gained back 20.  I'm working on it!

 And this one was from January. I posed with the day's NY Times to show that I wasn't faking my pics. AND, of course, that was challenged as well.

Thanks, Bette!

Oh, c'mon, Bette. Admit it: that NY Times is a mock-up you printed off your inkjet printer.

And very, very convincing.

That's funny !  Do people actually deny WL with the band?  I was a quite a skinny chick with the Band (because I couldn't eat at night - I realize now if I could change that one thing again, I could be thin again ).  Oh!  It's that whole picture stretching thing that I don't think you've ever done.  You've had great weight loss with your band Bette.  I don't think anyone who has been around would try to take that away.  Cute though.  It reminds me of those "Body for Life" pics that I used to be obsessed with . . . (I took some too!)

Have a wonderful day!

You both have great before and after photos.  Congratulations to the both of your!

Wey, LisaO! How are you? Long time since I saw you!

Can't post photos from my ipad, will try to get to the desktop soon.
