Phyl- I posted a reply 2 days ago but I have no idea where it went?! I have another 57 lbs to go. I can not imagine what I will look like then!! I was 20 lbs heavier than my goal 7 years ago and I wore a size 6-7. I don't know that that will be the case this time. I can only hope!!!

Thank Jackie - but the chin is up cua you know how it goes the chin was always up due to the double chin issues now it's turkey neck and habit

You say you have 57 more lbs to go - I dont see 57 maybe 30-40 - but I wont' deter you from your goal - I was talking to my trainer and he thinks 150 would be a good number for me - he said i am big boned - that i have big hands and feet - yep 9 or 10.. He is doing a program about weight issues and women - it's not the # on the scale - it's how you look and feel - he said I would be to skinny at 120 or 130 - LOVE MY TRAINER ME TOO SKINNY - I have never been to skinny - I am not changing my ticker cuz we will see what 160 looks like first..

I totally get the holding the head up more to hide the chin. I have done that for so long I still do it. This last time I took pics I tried to mentally put my chin down but when they were taken I noticed that the chin is still noticable.

I don't know about the 57 lbs either. Like I said I was 20lbs more than what my goal was before and some people commented that I was 'too skinny'. My mom was having a fit thinking I was going to opposite and becomming anorexic. The thing is even if I lost the 57 lbs I would still be on the high end of my BMI. I don't know. My family doc thinks 57 will be way to much but I will see how I feel and look as I go. We are our own worst critics so I may have to post after another 20-30 lbs and see what you all think.

I wasn't sure what made me want to cry more...the new BEFORE pics or my GORGEOUS new pics. I decided if there were going to be tears, they were going to be tears of joy. Look at my face...I don't even look the same to me! I am normally not one to toot my own horn, but DAMN I am looking good! Can't wait for the tummy tuck, so that I feel this good about my WHOLE self.

Phyl - Nine Mos Post-Op

9 Mos Post-Op as of yesterday, 75 lb. down. Not the best picture in the world, but okay. Pants too big, baggy, bulky sweater & turtle neck because it was so COLD outside!! Not a very complimentary photo, but I think I see a difference from 6 Click the image to open in full size.Mos photo.
