@@amehammack2010 WOW!!! Please do share!! How did you manage to get it all off PLUS MORE??? We would love to know your typical meal plan and exercise plan, did you also have to deal with any loose skin?? You are absolutely gorgeous! I dream of maintaining like you!!

Thank you:) I really stuck to the high Protein, shakes mostly in the beginning and then a lot of fish and chicken. I do loves steak so I did eat steak occasionally but my stomach couldn't handle a lot of red meat for a while. I live on a farm and my husband and I have a pumpkin patch and corn maze in the fall so I do a lot of physical work so I didn't get toned by spending hours in the gym. Of course I do work out as well, I use free weights, resistance bands, apps on my phone and some dvds at home when I do have time. I have 4 kids and a 52 acre farm so I will be honest I don't have as much time to focus on working out as I'd like. But I work so much on the farm that I burn off the calories and lifting things has toned my arms and built my upper body up. People ask me all the time what workout I do and I just tell them the farm one! Lol. I never imagined that my reflection would be so drastically different in just 18 months! I am still getting used to it myself!!!

I have been amazingly fortunate in the loose skin area. I was only over weight for about 10 years and I guess maybe genetics helped me in the elasticity area bc the only real bad problem area I'm super self conscious about is my tummy and my upper thighs. post-291656-14626348937965_thumb.jpg never thought I'd post a swimsuit pic on social media but here's one I got brave enough to share a couple weeks ago :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

      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!!
