Pictures/ I thought I looked good!

Hi all, I rarely post negative things but frankly I have no one else who might understand. I have lost 141# so far and just passed the 2 yr mark. I know I look so much better and my health is good now so I am really grateful. The sad thing is I was just looking at my vacation photos and all I can see is saggy skin. My eye only goes to the droopy thighs and flabby arms. I look thick. I don't feel thick! I know I am not thin but I have been feeling good about how I LOOK. It is disheartening. I really do not want PS and I guess this will pass. I wanted to post some pix as I really felt pretty until I looked at those darn pictures. I guess standing next to a pretty 17 yr old with a body to envy didn't help! LOL Oh well.... thanks for letting me vent. I am usually so happy about the new me it kinda caught me by surprise.

Like I tell people - I look really good in clothes...PS is my next (maybe) adventure...

I feel your pain. I was 347 at one time....296 at surgery and now at 147 I still refuse to wear certain clothes in public...although this is getting better. I will be 2 years out july 28th 2006. It's funny to have a closet full of size 8-10-12's...the 10's being my usual size...the 8's for when i drop a few pounds...and the 12's are now my new "fat" clothes for when I'm feeling bloated. You would think I would be happy...and I am. But I sure hate seeing the melting legs and tummy and droopy arms I am going to have plastic surgery...I figure it's my retirement in 15 years...why look like I am 65 when I will only be 58??? So that is my gift to myself for my lifetime of working....a new make-over Continued happy journey to you!!!
