I lost 120 lbs in 8 months!--Before/After Pics :)
Fantastic pics! You are looking great. I think it's so vital that people show off their successes on here, it helps those of us waiting on surgery so much!

Thanks!! I was just saying in another reply to somebody that a lot of my not backing out, was due to the very nice people who posted before/after pics and it inspired me, and gave me hope that I can do it and maybe look like that one day!!
I totally agree!!! I wish we would see more before and afters from people. But I understand why some people don't also.
When is your surgery? Or do you have a date?
I haven't got a date yet, but I'm meeting Dr. Urbach on the 28th and I'll get my date then! My fingers are crossed for late April or May. I cannot take another stifling hot summer at this size! It would be so great to be 30-60 lbs lighter before it gets really hot and humid. I have this feeling that after this freezing winter, it's going to be a scorcher.

Thanks! It's not quite real yet, and probably won't be until I start the OptiFast. I've warned the people I work with to beware once I start on it ;)

Boy, I hope so! I also have to ask them to stop offering me treats, they're bad about wanting to share them since it's an office tradition to have treats most Mondays. Maybe I should post a big "no cupcakes" sign on my door :D
