Hey everyone I hit a year and a half this month and thought I would check in. For those that have been here a while I used to post with the name BigCountryAB, but that account dissapeared or something. So I've lost a total of 110lbs and kept it off for a full year. I've experimented with lots of different fitness regimens but currently I'm trying to add mass lol. I'm able to eat anything I want and I can eat more than I wish I was able to lol. Below are my most current pics. If anyone has a question let me know.

My surgery is scheduled for March 26. I started my preop diet today. 1000 calories 75 grams of Protein and 64oz of Water. So far so good. I'm super excited and nervous. I am ready to get this journey started. I haven’t told many people about the surgery. Just a few family members and my supervisors. They all have been very supportive throughout this process.
I have FEP BCBS and they approved me in 48 hours.

I love my sleeve and my new body I exercise quite a bit for muscle tone. I eat just about anything but still in very little amounts! My skin is not terrible but I would like to have my stomach and Brest done this year! I'm glad I was able to retain my curves my goal now is to tighten and build firmer muscles!
Still have occasional reflux, like now!! But I know what triggers it! Today was caffeine in iced tea!! I forgot!
Oh I am so excited and glad that I can wear actual designer jeans!! I wear a 31/32 in True Religions!!!!
My clothes are mostly medium I wear 12 pants. I really thank God for my surgeon and my insurance!!! It has changed my life!!

I went through so much and still am going through a lot 15 months after my sleeve surgery. I had everything that can happen except die..And there was a huge chance that was going to happen...So would I do it again?!!!!!!!!!!!
YES I would so fast it would make your head spin. I have lost over 180 lbs and feel a lot better even with what I am battling with now. I can now clean my own house, walk all I want. I am back cooking again and I can even touch my toes. I go where I want and sit where I want and no one is looking at me or making fun of me anymore.
I can hug my grand daughter tight to me and she has to tell me to let her go because i want to keep her next to my heart all the time. I wear clothes from a regular store and no sleep apnea, Migraines are limited. No stomach meds and no blood pressure pills....i could go on and on.......................................For me I was dead before I had surgery...the fact that I survived...makes it so I can have a second chance to finally live...........And I am..I am not saying it is a piece of cake that would be a lie...but for the most part it is the best decision I ever made....And i almost paid with my life for it!!!! no regrets here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Hun!

When you stop being afraid to put your jeans in the dryer.

When, instead of your husband's shirt fitting like a glove, you can wear it as a nightgown and look sexy! :tounge_smile:

When your collar bones come out of hiding

When you donate clothes that are too big instead of too small

When you lay on your side and you can feel your knee bones rub together for the first time and it feels weird so you put a pillow between your legs.

When your old clothes fit you like MC Hammer's balloon paints.

Never thought I'd hear that. He's been very supportive through all of this. I hit goal and lost another 5 lbs. I'm 5'6" and 155 lbs. my size 10 jeans are getting a little baggy. I'm happy where I'm at and am going to try to stop losing. But that was a very unexpected compliment for sure. Think that counts as a NSV.
