6 1/2 month... Size 20 to a size 10... Love my new life!!!

Great job!!!! You look amazing!

Great work!!!!

Love it! Absolutely what this surgery is all about! Good for you!!!

CONGRATS!!! What an awesome accomplishment!

Thank you. Time will make this all much easier to get through. I have went through my initial shock time... My grieving/angry stage... And I'm now ready to move on and do what I need to do for myself and for my daughter. I have been blessed with such a wonderful support system through my friends and family with my surgery, and they all have been supportive with all of this as well... I have no doubt that everything happens for its reasons... There are brighter days ahead.

I just posted a very similar post! I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this. I too have been very much blind sided with this same devastating news. It's so very hard not to take it personal and wonder what I did wrong, or what I didn't do right. I started therapy this past week because I was having major anxiety/panic attacks. I could barely make it to work and get anything done. It's been absolutely devastation to say the least. Just know that you are NOT alone in this....

I'm 6 months post op and my husband has decided that he wants to file for divorce. I've read that the statistics of this happening were pretty high before I had surgery, but never imagined I would fall into being a statistic. There has been no solid "reason" for his request for this, all I have been told is that he is no longer in love with me and hasn't been for a while. This news was broken to me a couple of weeks ago. I am down from 233lbs to 147lbs, size 20 to a size 10. I thought my journey through my weight loss would be something so magical and so memorable, yet, it's been completely overshadowed by another life changing event. Talk about a new life... I will be starting completely over now. New body... New mental/emotional outlook... Has anyone else been down this road???

Thank ya! I use to wear my bangs all of the time when I was younger... But stopped when I gained weight.. Felt like they made my face look wider... Ha! It feels good to be back to the old me again...

Five months post op... Highest weight: 227 Current weight: 159

I'm 3 months out and had a strawberry daiquiri last weekend. Drank it at home, just incase it didn't sit well. I will tell you that it was the tastiest adult beverage that I have had in a VERY long time! Ha! Went down smooth... Took my sips and glass lasted me for about an hour. I definitely got a good "buzz" from it. However.. The next morning I woke up feeling SUPER dehydrated! Not a good feeling. I will not consider drinking often... Maybe once in a blue moon...
