Default Pics before weight gain

I wanted to post some pics of the day of my wedding June 14 2005. This was me after losing 90 lbs. I was 150 during these pics. My current weight as of 2 month ago 274. I have been yo yoing for years. I plan on adding some current pics soon. I just don't have any right now. Its amazing at how much I was a photo whore when I was feeling good about myself. Now look out I will flip when people take photos.

You were beautiful then and from your avatar you are beautiful now. Those before pictures I posted made me sick. I cannot stand for anyone to take a picture of so I know how you feel but I think you are beautiful.

Heck yes you'll be back to 150 in no time. Really....I remember weighing 165 when I my husband....back in 1988! I then got up to over 200 in 1989, and never got below 200 except for once when I got to 170 for a day after doing Weight Watchers in the early 90's. I gave up on ever seeing 165 again long ago....and here I am...at 155 today! So, it actually can be done! Last year at this time I had lost some, but was still at 230 the day of surgery...and I've been in the 150's for months now. Once you have that surgery that weight pretty much falls off. It's keeping it off that requires work...but it's very do-able!!!

Try not to be discouraged. Taking care of your body at any size is so very crucial. You are lovely now and lovely before. Getting your health back is the real priority!!
