    1 year mark

    Im 14 months post-op and I was in a stall for 6 weeks... I'm starting to lose again although it's 1-2 lbs a week now as opposed to 4-7 lbs a week I was losing before... I have lost 168lbs since my surgery and I want to lose 20 more lbs. Its been a slow and tedious weight loss since the 1 year mark!

    stretching your tube

    I am 1 year 2 months post-op.. I will sometimes get an individual pizza and I can eat 1 whole slice without the crust and 1/2 slice of just the toppings... it is yummy. . But afterwards im full for about 4-5 hours.

  8. Ive lost 158 or 159 lbs. So far and im still losing. Its slower now..but still dropping weight.. at times I love this surgery and at other times I wish I would have never gone through with it... like when I want that extra bite of food. Or that whole cupcake or even an ice cold diet pepsi that hasn't passed these lips in a year...im so tired of water...lol My scale made me its b***h... but I took that back!!!!! The scale is my b***h now! Happy 1 year surgiverrsary to me 159 lb Down from a 30 jeans size to a 14 levi's Down from a 4x/5x shirts to size Large/ Xlarge. Down from a 46ddd bra to a 38ddd bra.... ( that part im still ok with) lol So yeah me! Oh im 5'9 and started at 350lbs day of surgery. ..
  9. Make sure you get your Protein in and drink the water! Do nit let guilt overwhelm you if you bite a cupcake or eat 5 M&M's ...lol. I had to learn that quickly... The best advice I can really give is ... When you look in your mirror and you've lost 50lbs.... 100lbs... 150lbs.... your mind will play tricks on you... I still see that surgery dated body at times when I look in the mirror. .. do not let that get you down! Also... dont become a slave to your scales... I was my scale b*tch for the longest time.... now I weigh myself 2 times a week.... Good luck on your surgery!
  10. June 29th is my 1 year anniversary!!!!!! 350 lbs day of surgery 156lbs lost so far IM 5/9 1/2 and wearing size 14.. which makes me happy!!!! Id still like to lose another 30-50lbs but ive been in a stall for 2 months... sad face.. How is everyone else doing????
  11. I will be 1 year post-op on June 29th with a total weight loss of 156lbs so far.. im still losing weight but I can't stand this skin on my stomach. .. is 1 year ok... or should I wait 2 years????
