5 Months post op.... Numbers and victories...

blogs/blog-0157775001374090714.jpgHi there fellow sleevers...

 

I am updating you with my 5 months post op information...

I don't think I have put my measurements on here before so I wanted to put that out there today. I thought my weight numbers were drastic, but once I re did my body measurements it really put things into perspective!

 

So My starting weight pre op was 293lb

I am currently just over 5 months post op and am at 208 this morning...How awesome is that?

I am almost to ONEderland!!! So excited! I hope to get under 200 by August. We shall see if I an make that goal... I got 2 weeks, I can do it!

 

Ok as for measurements.

 

Pre op 293lb.......NOW 208lb

Size 22 Size 14/16

 

Arms 18 in....................14.25 in - 3.75 in

Thigh 32 in....... ............25 in -7 in

Neck 18.75 in ...............16 in -1.25 in

Tummy 51 in.....................40 in -9 in

Bust 46.5.....................41.5 in -5 in

Boobs 55 in .....................47 in - 8 in

Hips 55 in .....................45 in -9 in

Calf 21.5......................17.5 - 4 in

 

 

So that is a total overall loss of 47 inches!!! Totally awesome....

 

A few Non Scale Victories include...

Being able to cross my legs (I am really stoked about that one)

Don't feel gross in a bathing suit

I have gotten rid of about 5 trash bags full of cloths.. all different sizes..

Everything is too big for me now

I can go up stairs and hills without a problem.

I get compliments from everyone

My Ex thinks I look good... (don't worry, hi is still an Ex)

Guys are starting to stare at me for the first time ever...

I could just keep going, but I think I will leave the rest for my next post...

 

Thanks to all of you for all the support! Your amazing!
