I honestly forgot to add my before and after pics when I did my 5 year post.

It really doesn't matter to me but I think having a visual for newer people may give them hope or encouragement or something like that.

I know that I always like seeing all the before and after pics. It makes me feel that it is doable after all.

So, here I am.

Oct. 2002, right before my first WLS, at my highest of 240 lbs.

July 2015

I still can't believe I have stayed a normal size all this time. I never thought it was possible.

WLS 10/28/2002 Revision 7/23/2010

High Weight (2002) 240 Revision Weight (2010) 220 Current Weight 115.
