    So now that I've lost my goal weight, and kept it off for 3 years, I don't know what to do with myself. I can't afford surgery, so it looks like i will never get the body I dreamed of, and I hit the gym 5 times a week, but that can only do so much. I also noticed that I can eat, and drink so much more now, and it scares me. How do you all handle being done with your journey?

  2. 125 pounds lost

    Absolutely beautiful!! May I ask what are your stats? How long did it take you?
    Thank you. I started at 267, I am now 142 ish. From a size 22 jeans to a 6/8 jeans, my tops were 2xl, and I am now a size small top sometimes extra small tops, I still can't believe it. I had my surgery on May 31, 2013. It took my 10 months to lose all my weight. I had 800 calories, and worked out/ walked 5 times a week. Didn't cheat, and eat extremely well. I hope that helps. If you have anymore questions please let me know.
    how tall are you?

    I am 5'7

  4. This is all I have for now , my former nurse is a very close friend of mine he works at another hospital now hut was able to visit me in recovery since he works close to the hospital I was at, that was on June 11th one day after surgery, 10 days later I told him I'd lost 6 waist sizes and about 55lbs and he asked me to prove it, my work scrubs were 7x(60W) so I put them on and this is what it looked like, I can't buy any for awhile since the surgery and time off tapped me out a bit but I don't really mind if they fall, I'm very proud !!!attachicon.gif ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1436144155.457251.jpg

    That's great. Good job, that's very impressive.


  5. Good Lord! That's amazing. You are utterly transformed into a different looking human being. I hope you're as happy as you look like you are. Because you look wonderful!

    Congratulations.

    Thank you. I have definitely have my days. I don't think I will ever be truly happy with my body image, and that is something that I am working on. When I was over weight I always told myself that when I "finally" hit my dream goal of 145 I would be so happy, well truth is that I didn't picture how my body would look after all that weight loss, but I am healthy now and very thankful for that.


  6. That is inspiring I had my surgery on the 10th of June, and I started in February at 388, I went to my PCP yesterday and I'm at 322, I expect to be under 300by end of August, not worried about my loose skin, I'm just happy to be getting my health back and I started to work out at the gym again which makes me happy, I've always loved body building so I can keep up with the weight training, people like you inspire me to keep going and see how far I can take this, thank you for posting

    Thank you for your kind words. Good luck on your journey. I can't wait to see your after pictures.
