Starting weight 280, Surgery on 8/15/2011, 8 months out 84 lbs down. 2nd pictur taken approx 3 weeks ago? SUPER HAPPY,

ok I had to share I don't have any pics of me at all from before surgery but I did find one that my friend posted of me on fb and I couldn't believe how different I look now compared to this pic so I had to post this one as well!!

Wow! 62lbs in 3 months, that's awesome! I have to post pix too. I'm down 51 lbs and im 2months post op..

Aww thanks!!! I've gotten at a stuck point now and I've been lazy with going to the gym! I need a swift kick in the rear to get motivated again!!

I just had to share!!! These are my biggest size jeans that I wore before surgery I haven't worn them in a couple weeks and it was laundry day and put them on to run to the store and I couldn't believe my eyes!!!

Pro-op
Surgery
About 1 week shy of three months.
Starting weight 205
Surgery weight 200
Current weight 156
Goal weight 135
Total weight loss 49

I've now lost 238 pounds as of today but I am 2.5 years out

Progress pics.....yay! I'm glad I'm finally able to say I have some!!! Here goes nothing....1st pic I'm down 14 lbs (pre-surgery), 2nd pic 31 lbs down, and most recent today 45 lbs down!

OH lordy...as soon as I start my journey I'll take a before and then an after...when I can see a difference LOL Have you looked at before and afters on some of the other sites. Wowza for sure. My friend who had her surgery in February of this year has now lost 103!!

I was hospitalized in 2008 for emergency surgery. They checked my sugars only to find they were 455! I was on an insulin drip in icu for 5 days.
The day of my bypass my A-1C was 13.5 !
At my 3 month check it was 8.5
At my 6 month check it was 4.8
That's normal non diabetic adult range!
I was taken off all my diabetic meds including insulin. The surgery has done its job! For me that is. I'm going to see my primary at my one yr check up. If its still in this range I'm diabetes free!

I thought we could start thread for progress pictures. Please upload and share your successes!

All the buttons/snaps on our pants are broken
Sweating all the time
Ability to shop wherever we want
