Since I had my PS and hernia repair surgery I had my wife take some new pic’s of me, and I made a new before and after pic. When I look at the pic I am having a problem believing who I am seeing in the new pic. I can identify more with my before pic than the new one. I don’t think I will ever get use to the way I look today. Alan

Now that's what it's all about! LOOKING FANTASTIC MY FRIEND!!! You should be proud of what you've accomplished - and something tells me you're not done just yet! CONGRATULATIONS - IMHO you are living proof of the resiliency of the human spirit and that miracles do happen. Cards Fan

Whoa! Great pic man, and CONGRATS on being a successful looser!

That "body image" thing is so weird. Here, I sit a few months pre-op and can't even imagine what my body will look like thinner!

Again, congrats man!

A picture is worth a thousand words and this picture tells a great success story.

The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking....... If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.

Alan, You look great man and like CardsFan I do not think you are done. I can identify with the not being able to believe you are the person (body wise) that you are becoming. However, as time passes and you see yourself more and more as the person you are becoming the more normal it will become. Keep up the good work and Congrats. Bill
