I am very happy with my progress thus far. consulting with a plastic surgeon next month about loose skin issues mostly breast. Good luch everyone.

Here are my most recent ones. 140 pounds lost (12 months post op pics). Size 20/22 to size 4.

Congrats to everyone on the big and little successes! I haven't really posted any before and after pics until now...I guess I felt a little too self conscious, plus, when you're losing over time it's hard to see the progress visually. Everyone (my boyfriend especially) has been telling me how great I look and I think I'm getting to a point where I can believe them.
But here was the best thing of all...about 7 years ago I went on vacation to Myrtle Beach. We went to the Broadway at the Beach amusement park and I tried to ride the swings with my daughter. I was so large that whne they tried to get me into the seat they scraped the skin off my thumb...that's how tight it was. In the end they couldn't safely load all of me into that tiny swing. I had to get off, in front of everyone and somehow explain to my daughter why I couldn't ride. It was humiliating. I'm so happy now to say I went back to Myrtle Beach and fit in the swing! It was one of the most exhilarating moments of my life to date.
So with that success under my belt I'm going to be brave and post my before and after pics. The first set is about a week post-surgery. The last set are from today. I'm 54 pounds down and I've lost quite a few inches. The best part is how wonderful I feel. NO achy knees! NO high blood sugar! NO groaning when I walk up steps! I even broke out a pair of high heeled boots for new years eve! lol The last picture is me in the dress I bought for New Years Eve.
Again, congrats to all! We've worked hard and deserve a moment to just smile and enjoy the progress!

Oh and another one!!

Surgery date july 1 st 2014 highest 265 current 193 72 down!! Happiest ive been in many many years! new year new me

Before pic is me at 280. Surgery was 7/23/14. Took the after picture a few weeks ago at 220. I am now at 213

This is my first time posting pictures although I do have before and after photos in my gallery. I really don't know how to post pics. Hopefully the pictures come out right.
I was sleeved on 4/8/14. I am currently 8 months post op. I still have about 20 pounds more to lose until I reach my goal weight. The top photo of me in the black and pink dress was taken on 12/5/14 weighing 144lbs (my current weight). The other two photos are during the process, I believe sometime in July 2014. The bottom photo is from Nov 2013 when I weighed 219lbs. My highest recorded weight is 235lbs but when I began my weight loss journey in Sept 2013 my highest weight was 219lbs.

PHENOMENAL. Every one of you!

I've posted on this thread before, but here is my FINAL before and after. Been maintaining at this weight for 3 months so I assume I'm done. And I couldn't be happier!
Before... December 4, 2013 the day I started my preop diet
After...December 4, 2014 100 pounds down

Here my before and during 8 weeks out the first picture was taking the day I got home from surgery the last was last week 48 pound gone forever

Last week: I am actually forgetting what it feels like to be huge. Strange!
