I don't have before/after pics but I've lost 67.2 lbs since surgery on Dec 17th. (And a total of 136.2 since Oct 1st!)

I will probably wait until I'm 100 lbs down from surgery to take after pics. Since I have so much to lose, even though the numbers are big the loss is not that visually noticeable yet.

Well the higher the start weight the faster it falls off. I had a LOT to get rid of and still do haha You'LL be surprised how fast the time goes!

Quick question. What kind of exercise are you doing? I'm still mostly doing walking and some strength exercises but haven't really gotten back to the gym more than once or twice a week (I was going 5-6 times / week before surgery!). My progress is similar to yours (my surgery was 2 weeks after you) but I have 100 lbs more than you to lose. I am just curious if I should really be stepping it up and getting back to Water aerobics. It's just been a pretty brutal winter with a sinus infection that lasted several weeks and then lots of snow. The past two weeks have been warm, but I'm still in my old routine! I have a plan to amp it up, but am just curious what others are doing!

To be honest with you, I'm in ny and the cold and snow has kept me in. I don't do much of anything as far as exercise, even with my gym membership. Have to start going again. It's getting nice so no more excuses! I've always hated working out... I'm ashamed of that but it's the honest truth. Its hard for me to motivate to work out.

You and me are in the same boat then. I actually enjoy myself when I get into a regular routine. It's getting INTO that routine that's the hard part. Especially when you're so busy! I've got jury duty tomorrow and I'm hoping to get dismissed early and hit the pool for Water aerobics in the afternoon. I just need one good week to get me settled into a routine.

      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!!
