Ok, so this was me last year before my gastric bypass surgery. A pic I am not at all proud of because it shows how bad things had got. I thought I looked ok on the day…and kept up the pretence until I saw the evidence in the photo album. I will never be able to go back and change that pic (it’s there as a stark reminder that I was morbidly obese) but that pic and a chat with another former fattie made me explore weight-loss or bariatric surgery. Those of you who visit this site frequently will know my bypass surgery has been a success but do you know how much?
Well today is my 1 year Oppiversary and I now weigh over 6 stone lighter! Here are the stats:
CAROL’S STATS AS OF 30.10.2010

And the new me…still a work in progress…
