how are you scrapping your WLS journey?

I am doing a 12 x 12 for me...and a 6x6 to carry around for 'show and tell'. I already have started both. I purchased my 6 x 6 at Target...where they are now carrying some pretty cool stuff. Got the paper palette..it only took about 12 sheets altogether since you can cut 4 backgrounds from each and the book itself only has 30 pages. A few embellishments and I'll be ready to show it off!

I'm going to do a 6x6 album documenting my journey, with photos, snippets from my journal, etc.

You can purchase precut 6x6 paper at Michaels. Also many other precut sizes.

I did a 6x6 book for my work and bought a "room" from Chatterbox. That way I could cut down all the 12x12 papers and everything in the entire book was coordinated. I'll probably do the same thing for my WLS journey, if I ever get beyond the first step, that is!! Anyway, one photo I MUST have is a picture of my G-tube. I still can't get over having to have one, but I'm pre-op and a LONG way from that! ~Jan

I am so glad that others are doing this too. I have picked up a 12 X 12 album at Joann's. I would love to see some of the pages that you are all doing. I want to have a few pages done before my surgery (pre-op stuff) and then I plan to do what I did for my son, a monthly page of the first year. I need to get started as my surgery date is only 10 days away! -Gerriann Surgery Scheduled 5/14/04

Hi , I am planning on doing a scrapbook of my Journey through the WLS too! I am going too have picture's of me before surgery, then put my hospital band in .Then I will do monthly picture's,(maybe at the beginning get picture's every 2 week's). I will also put some of the Dr. paper's insid too. I do alot of stamping too, so I will use that. Also use various embellishment's. I am so excited about doing this. Also I will record my weight under each picture. I am kind of new with scrapbooking, but I dolove doing it. Janina

YOu know, I never even thought about scrapping this. Its full of potential though...I scapped my infertility. Monthly Pictures of your weight loss...would give a great thing to look back on... Good Idea's Yall
