I'm doing this from my phone so I hope this works. If not there are a couple on my profile. Before and almost half way.

I'm 5 months out from surgery and I've lost 94 pounds. I have 55 pounds left to lose to reach my goal of 125. I'm 5 ft tall. I'm so excited about the weight I've lost so far and feel a million times better.
I hesitate to post this because the before pic is me in my underwear but It's the only pic I have that really shows the difference. I hope it doesn't offend anyone.
My family is getting ready to go on a beach trip and I bought a swim suit. I got a halter bikini top and swim shorts. I tried to find a pic of me last year at the beach but I couldn't find any that showed me from the shoulders down...but I found this underwear pic from the night before surgery.
I've lost a total of 64 inches so far! I've lost 13.5 inches from my hips and 10 inches from each thigh!! I'm amazed at the process and I'm loving this journey!
Please, if underwear offends you, do not click on the pic. :-)

Hi Olivia!
You are doing absolutely fantastic! Do NOT worry about the pounds gained because there are MANY factors that can contribute to that (water retention due to menstral cycle, Water rention in the muscles due to exercise, the body storing "energy" when you up your calories because you are usually in starvation mode, etc.). It sounds like you are doing everything that you are suppose to be doing. Do not let this stall make you doubt yourself or your journey. Good luck on your continued success!

5 months out, down 99lbs, including pre-op!

Dear JCassel,
Congratulations - - you made it to the parking lot! Good for you. I can totally relate to the sounds of people making fun of me, talking and joking about my weight. I still struggle and have just started the process of having a sleeve done because it is now all about health for me. All I can say is that you are giving the small-minded, mean, hateful people who say and do those cruel things, way too much power. Don't let them prevent you from achieving your goals. I have found from past experience, that the staff at the health club's are very helpful and encouraging. The people who are at the health clubs fall in three categories, those who are so pre-occupied with their own routine that they won't notice you are there, people like you and me that struggle with our weight (maybe there are some people there who just lost some weight and then there are a few people there who will be so small minded that they may say think something but those people don't matter. I don't know that you will ever forget the "bullies" in our present and past, but if we stay in the "parking lot" they win and we lose!
