Wait... Was she obese? This is horrible and so sad.... Wow... I am speechless.

YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS WITH YOUR UPCOMING SURGERY! Since I intimately know your pain I felt the need to reach out. You are brave to post your story as I could not do the same. I probably never will as the pain is that deep. Hugs to you.

Whew!!!! This is GREAT NEWS!!!!!! I'm so happy you're healing!!!!

Wow!!!!!! Your transformation is amazing!!!! I also love the pink shelves in the picture

I am so excited I hope mine end up looking like this!!! You have no Idea how many times I have entertained breast reduction surgery!

Ripped!!!!! Wow!!! U look great!!!!

They are STILL FINE LOL the OLD you will be the NOW you very shortly!!! Hugs!!!

So I lost 15 pounds since my first appointment till now. I'm now 215 and I get sleeved Friday. Some folks still think I'm nuts since I'm loosing weight before such drastic measures. I've NEVER HAD PROBLEMS LOOSING WEIGHT. It's KEEPING IT OFF... that's the problem! :/

I watch ninja warrior religiously and i hope you get on the show!!! My long-term fitness goal would be a triathlon. I'm still doing research on what kind of triathlons there are and where... But that would be my ultimate goal! I also want to get a personal fitness trainer before all of this happens of course so I can be well-prepared.

You've GOT THIS!!!! Super fast healing vibes being sent your way !!!!

I agree with you and I don't believe in organized religion either and I don't go to church on a regular basis. I could write a whole book on what has happened to me over the past few years but I won't make this thread about "my stuff". I just want you to know... I know what you're feeling and know that you have my support! IT WILL GET BETTER.

I spoke with my surgeon and he said I should be fine. He's also not prescribing me Actigall. I plan on keeping my fingers crossed & hoping for the best! The man went to Harvard and Columbia for his medical training so I'm going to trust him

I'm on the 26th... Glad to hear everyones positive progress!

So what's the latest? How are you feeling?

Wow what a difference! You look awesome!!!

Got my Miralax today! Thanks!!

God bless you and your journey. Your post brought tears to my eyes. It's amazing how many emotions we stuff down with food over the years. Now once we have the sleeve there's no hiding the emotion we must feel them and feel them fully without food to dull the pain. There are a myriad of reasons why I gained all this weight and all of them are emotional for me as well. As for losing your belief in God I totally understand where you're coming from and let me tell you something God is real. I've had a near death experience and I am telling you that He's real and it sounds so cliché to say that there's a divine plan but there is. The loss of your son is something your soul needed to experience on earth. When we die we get all of our questions answered eventually. Maybe going back to that church might be a good idea because I understand how expensive counseling can be. I am giving you a super big cyber hug right now You hang in there.

Ok I'm buying depends TODAY. My God... I think this guy is marriage material after your experience I feel for your situation and I get sleeved Friday so IM GOING TO BE IN THE SAME BOAT!!!! Big hugs!!!!

Hot!!!!! Go ladies!!!! Amazing transformation!!!!
