Okay, this was difficult as I had to go searching for before photos. I've come to realize I avoided the camera at all cost. Kind of sad now that I think about it. Anyway, here they are. Before my sleeve - Nov 2014. And 2 months after my sleeve - July 2015.

HW - 304

SW - 275

CW - 220

Sleeved 5/11/15

I'm eight months out from surgery and have surpassed my initial weight loss goal. I may lose a little more. I'm trying to talk myself into maintenance but it's hard to make that transition

I'm 35 years old. Sw: 250. Cw:123. Height 5'6

Then:

I've lost a bit more now. Definitely very close to the least I want weigh.

You look great. I guess if you are only 7 months out, you have not had any plastic surgery done? Your arms look amazing.

I have a question I don't quit weigh enough for the surgery but have some of the other issues that may qualify me for the surgery. The question is, is how many times do they weigh you? And when first consultation, right before the surgery etc... if they make you diet before hand what if you lose weigh? Do they weigh you again?

I don't have barely any loose skin. A little bit I'm reallllly thin right now. A little on my legs if I bend then a certain way, tiny bit on arms but not noticeable. What I do have is on my stomach but I've also had two huge babies! I'm very lucky and won't be getting plastic surgery. Maybe some day a Tummy Tuck but not in a rush

My doctor weighed me one time at the first appointment. That is the weight they submitted to the insurance.

They weighed me again but it didn't matter that time because I'd already qualified

Before the surgery (These pictures were taking about 5 to 6 years ago when I was really close to my heaviest weight)

Around 2011

Around 2010

After the surgery (These pictures were taking tonight. I'm about 8 and 1/2 months post surgery. I'm down about 16 inches from the waist time a year ago.)

Edit:

Just realized the picture where I am in the green shirt and jeans, well the after surgery pictures I am in those same jeans that I was in the before pictures. You can totally see how I don't fit them anymore.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
