Before

Before my DS surgery last week I did a lot of things to get ready for it. I cleaned the apt, went grocery shopping for the things I needed after surgery, ate out A LOT (Cheesecake Factory, Posados, La Madeleine, etc.), drank LOTS of sweet tea and 'real' Dr. Pepper (had to get all those 'last meals' in before the big day), and I also took 'before' pictures, as well as measurements. I want to be sure and document my progress along the way through photos and measurements. I've seen lots of people do so and the comparisons are amazing. I can't wait! So here they are. They are terrible, but necessary.

  2. You worded this so well. "They are terrible but necessary" I felt the exact same way about my before shots. I can remember feeling so uneasy - I didn't even smile. I can see the excitement for future things in your eyes in these pictures.

    Again, I know this is hard so thank you for sharing. Between you and Keelie you totally give a girl hope and courage to do this battle. ox
