Thank you. I had a RNY just under two years ago.

I heart my avi pic too - I'm very proud of my shoulders and arms!

I hope you're right, but not sure! Thanks for saying that and making me feel better!

Ah man I would love to post my before and after but I don't like knowing that it's here forever. I worry about who may see my pic and it's rather embarrassing.

I haven't been posting, but I'm here reading every day. My eating has been good since I made my husband hide the scale.

I have an appointment to do my plastics consultation on June 2nd. I'm shooting for an early November surgery date.

Oops, I meant to post that in the monthly thread.

I have photobucket. That is what i used for another pic. I deleted it from my photobucket account but the pic was still showing up here so I asked Dottie to delete it.

I too thought that is would disappear after it was deleted from PB? So weird.

hmmm, mine did. it's a link... maybe you posted it NOT using html? because a link is a link and if the link to which it's pointing is empty, it should say that. Very strange.

It is gone from photobucket but it is still showing here.

Hi, girl. Where have you been hiding????? Miss you. How are things?

chewiegand · 01-29-2013, 05:56 AM

Wow--everyone looks great. I don't even know if I have any before photos. I hid from the camera all the time. I will look when I get home, although I haven't lost much in the 8 weeks so I don't know if there is much difference anyway.
