I posted this on my own thread a while back but I'd like it to live forever here, too! 100 lbs down and a little past goal in this pic.

I respect you for this information, if I do need to,post on this subject it is good to know we still have a home on General Surgery Forum. In advance, good luck Alex with your surgery next week. I will remember you in my thoughts on that day.

This is fantastic news!!! I agree with Sleeved. Find good support wherever you are able to do so. I hope and pray that you have continued sobriety and continued health and weight loss
Huge congratulations are in order!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS !
That's huge! Get support wherever you need it. We all find what we need in different places.
You lost weight and found sobriety! You are my hero!
Keep going!

Five weeks and two days since my last drink and back at the gym three days a week.
I went to the rehab support group, which was rubbish. I have decided to do private counselling, one on one.
Fifteen pounds down.... That’s 15!!!!!!!
🤸🏼‍♀️🤹🏻‍♀️

The following pictures are from the past two years when I started my WLS journey. In the first picture in the summer of 2016, that clinic closed but I had all this preoperation experience in my toolbox. The other two pictures are me as I took up kickboxing for 10 months prior to surgery. In October I was scheduled on the 31st in 2017. I've almost down 50 pounds so very close. The last three are of the past couple days this March 2018.

fantastic job!

I have lost 41 lbs since being sleeved 10/13/17. I feel like the loss rate has been sooooo slow and had to overcome a few stalls. I have 25 lbs still to lose to hit my ultimate goal weight. But I have 7 months to lose that weight to make my goal.

I did a face transformation comparison the other day for myself. Needed to see the change to remind myself that even though I feel like the loss is slow, there is still loss.

I was 261 on October 31st, 2017 and today March 3, 2018, I am 212 pounds! My antidepressants are being adjusted and that aspect has been hellish. Crying myself to sleep some nights, now I'm coming out hopefully. I workout as I can somedays it is hard to get my butt out of bed. I get in gym time 3 days a week of about an hour, learning to give myself grace while at the same time holding myself accountable. I sleep so much better without that 50 pounds on my chest and body, more then just looks (I do look better) is I'm able to move more quickly as I workout, and I'm not yawning after I leave the gym like I used to. So it's worth the mental battle as my body is like a leveler bubble all over the place right now, it'll find the center soon enough. Pray for me regarding my ongoing depression please for those that do pray. Thanks.

The top is now I'm at 218 and the bottom is before when I was at 261. Currently, I'm playing around with makeup hence the red glossy eyeshadow suits my mood. The 'old Hannah' aka. non-depressed Hannah will return, it's just taking some medication sorting out. Bump in the road.

It felt great to get out today and renew my gym membership it's just 25 a month! Getting my sweat on has been a go-to stress reliever for me for a long time, now I just need to not overdo it...oh look at all the shiny weights! I'm day 48 out and feel great.
