but i will treasure it forever the first day we actually squeezed into my old jeans - it was tough getting them zipped - kyle (my son) helped us....it been a few weeks we maybe able to do it on our own next time

i think i will try on my favorite shorts with her next time

Ok we did the photos in my old shorts...so you can see we are really in them i will treasure it forever

i think you can notice that the shorts are really that big to it both of us but they dont stay up at al if i let go they hit the ground - which is funny...

OMG!! These pictures are great...what an inspiration. I hope everyone else who can fit their family in their pants takes some pictures and posts, it seems soooo fun! Can't wait to be there.

That is SO true! I have a picture of myself walking around Lake Geneva, and I look like a bulldog - scary! I never realized (until I started losing weight) that 300 lbs was a frightening place to be. When I got those photos back from the photo place (we're talking 10 years ago) - I thought I looked GOOD!

Not only will we end up looking better (for future photos), we'll be around long enough to take more photos!

Awesome pictures...thanks so much for sharing them. They are an inspiration to us all. I'll try it with my 7 year old when I get smaller...slow process that it is!

oct 18, 2005 - day of surgery 225
Nov 18, 2005 - 1 month - 200 = 25 lbs gone

April 8, 2006- almost 6 months today I weighed 155.5 but over the past few weeks and depending on the time of day i weigh 160 so I dont know what is up with my weight... as of today i lost 4 lbs this month I hope that sticks ~ I will be happier if i loss 4 lbs for the month than to gain 1 pound....
