Bikini
So I found a VS String Bikini around the house, so I thought i would be brave and try it on and thought i would have my mom take a few pre-op pics with me wearing it while i was at it. Ughh, lets just say, it wasnt fun. But I thought it would be a great way, to watch my progress. I think I want to make of "scrapbook" per say of my journey throu WLS. I saved my pre-testing wristband, and have a couple of preop pics that I have. I think it will be a great way to look back upon and see how far ive came.
If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never, give up!

you know I wish that I had more pre op pics. I remember thinking that I should take some full body shots but then I told myself that every picture of me in the last 6 or 7 years is a "before" picture (including my wedding album, when I was my heaviest)
I did take pictures of me in my underwear from all 3 sides the day of surgery, 1month and every month until this month. It was hard to see the changes in my weight at first but the pics of me in my underwear really show the difference which really helped me in the beginning.
Now I can wear clothes in my "after" pics since its really obvious that im 4 sizes smaller.
also I tried on a bikini today at the store, thinking I could just wear it around the back yard for tanning, but NO WAY not even after losing 85 lbs ! but next summer it just might happen. for now I will pull on my 16 with the little skirt to hide my thighs and be really really really happy that I look sooo good in it!
Im making a scrapbook too. I have a calendar with my weekly weights and monthly measurements and when I went down a size.
:)
that way if Im ever feeling fat I can just look at where I started.
