I'll be 7 months post op next week. I'm down 106 pounds. I'm proud of my progress but I am still having issues with seeing myself as a smaller me.

Seven months.....Super job. You look great. You definitely have the process down pat.

Just keep looking in the mirror.......and that "smaller you issue" will vanish.......replaced with "damn, I look good"!! ;)

BTW......stop looking at the phone.....eyes up .....show us that smile, you earned it. :P

Congrats, you look great!! I know you don't feel smaller at this time, it took me a few years to REALLY feel it. Even after a TT/Panni. I still have times, like change of season, or buying new clothes where I'm surprised that something fits. One thing that helps is looking at old photos or clothes, seeing the numbers I wrote down during my losing phase, going to support group (where I am always asked to speak) and remembering my FIRST pre-op support group & where I came from. Also helps me to not become complacent with my eating & excercise.

      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!!
