Hi everyone!
I had to search for some older pics because I never allow my picture to be taken, but I found a couple to put next to one from yesterday.
It will be a year post-surgery on Dec 30th and I made my first goal... 100lbs down from surgery day. Woooooooo!
I was 369 on surgery day and today I got 263lbs. I can't even believe it. I also had my one-year follow up with my doctor today and she was estatic with my progress. I went from a 58 BMI to 38 BMI. I has been a long journey and I'm no where near done, but I am, for the first time in a very, very long time, happy :')

I love seeing everyone's before and after pictures they always inspire me so I thought I'd post one since its been a while and I actually am now in the 200's! My sw-442 surgery date-7/26/16 (Gastric bypass) current weight-298 I still have such a ways to go but I am loving my journey to my goal weight of 199. I honestly have no complaints and I am starting to enjoy exercises and jogging. I'm so glad I decided to do this.

Thank you so much for the kind words

I had my surgery in Feb of 2015. And I have turned my life around from 274kg (604lbs) I cannot put my story into a short post so I have made a website www.halftheman.co.za
I am willing to answer any questions or offer any help I can to anyone who might need it..

This happened to me in the first two months. It's normal.
I wish I still felt that way LOL. You will get your appetite back, it will be much less than pre-surgery, which is the point, but it won't be as bad as it is now for you.
Hang in there and you'll do great!

Hi there! I've been reading and looking at plenty of great stories and advice on this website. I decided I should put up my progress so far. I started at 243lbs and now I'm at about 199lbs. My sleeve surgery was October 25th, 2016, and I started pre op exactly 1 week before that on the 18th. So, I guess I've lost like 44lbs in about 8 weeks. Feeling pretty good and looking forward to losing the next 40lbs.
Starting Weight 243lbs
Current Weight: 199lbs
Weight lost: 44lbs (8 weeks)
Height: 5'5
Age: 20

Dude awesome! What type of surgery did you have? That is a huge weight loss. I had the sleeve and am only down 100lbs after 11.5 months.
Congrats!!!!!!
