3 years out... very happy and maintaining at less than half my former size. My life is so much fuller and richer!
I do have more tummy upsets, but nothing that is a big problem. And lets be honest I felt like total crap when I was super morbidly obese, so this is nothing.

I've done my before and after sleeve surgery pics before in this thread. Here are my before and after abdominoplasty and panni pics. Don't worry the scar is covered with scar sheets, so it's safe for the weak of stomach. 155 pounds gone for good and 26 inches off my stomach gone for good from pre-op sleeve (9/12/13) to 1 month post op Tummy Tuck (6/12/15).
PS. don't mind the stretch marks. I wear them proudly as a momma of 4 amazing kiddos.

You grab your typical XXL or XL shirt and then end up buying a plain old L size shirt at Old Navy! Let the shopping begin! Watch out Mediums, I'm coming for you next!

I started at 250 six months ago and am 8 pounds from goal weight of 130. I'm 5'6

When I can get out of my car and step between the car and the garage wall (a small space for two cars) and don't get my clothes dirty from squeezing against the car!

This isn't my after because I still want to lose about 40-50lbs but so far so happy with my progress and my sleeve. I'm about 11.5 weeks out and am down 76lbs.

I can relate to so so many of these. One of my favorites is, "oh my God, who knew you had such a long neck!?" LOL

Your tights are sagging?! Yup! Never thought my tights would get loose on me, but there's extra loose fabric right under my butt and belly. The best part is, they didn't fit before surgery and they're a 1x!

You truly now have the body of an athlete, before you did too, but unfortunately it was that of a Sumo wrestler.
