I hit my "first" goal of 180 pounds last week and posted some pictures on another thread, but I am becoming addicted to posting pictures , so thought I would post here as well . It makes me feel so positive about everything when I come to this thread and see everyone's progress!!!!

Blue Blouse - around 350 pounds
Yellowish Blouse - one month before surgery - around 300 pounds
last two pictures - taken last week at 178.8 pounds!!

Ok, I haven't posted pics before because my progress has been slow, but I can finally see a bit of a difference in my face.

Before at 275lb:

I'm new to the site and have'nt had surgery yet.. I'm trying to find a Dr. that will do it for under$9000.00 I live north of Houston, Tx. and am concerned after losing the weight I need/want I'll have to have cosmetic surgery for the sagging skin.... You look great -- did you have cosmetic surgery to get rid of the sagging skin....thanks
