  1. Thank you!! I’m definitely realizing that I have some adjusting to do. I’m excited to lose the last few lbs and work on maintenance though!
  2. Just over one year out from surgery and I’m so close to my first goal weight. I feel really good where I am but I do want to tone up some more. Started at 311lbs, size 24. Now I’m 180lbs, size 8.
  3. Gorgeous! You're glowing. You look so much more comfortable, confident and happy! Congrats!
  4. Thank you so much! So thankful for this surgery!
  5. My weight loss has slowed down a lot lately but I know I definitely need to hit the gym more regularly. So excited to be close to goal. The last time I saw the nutritionist she thought that 170lbs would be a good goal for me and we could reassess once I reach it. Today I'm 184lbs and I have my one year surgery anniversary coming up April 20th. Trying to crack down to hopefully be 170 by my annual check-up. Regardless I'm really proud of how far I've come and I know that I can get there with the same focus I've had the last 10-11 months. In the last week or so when I've seen old pictures I don't even recognize that person. Surgery was the best decision I've made! December 2016 February 2018
  6. Happy Surgiversary!! You’ve done an amazing job, you should be proud! Keep kicking ass! You’re a great inspiration
  7. Amazing job!! Love to hear success stories of people who are in maintenance. Thank you for sharing!!
  8. Amazing!!! Congrats on your success! You look fantastic!
  9. Almost 9 months from surgery. I've lost 125lbs so far. Last time I met the nutritionist she said my goal should be around 170 so I only have 15lbs until I hit that. I plan to reassess how I feel at that weight and if I'm happy at 170 or if I want to lose more. I've taken up sewing over the last few months and customizing my clothes for my changing body is a huge help since I'm losing more in different places and don't always fit well into ready to wear clothes. I made myself the first form fitting dress ever and hopefully find somewhere to wear it soon!
  10. Congrats!! Long term maintenance is one of the hardest parts!

  12. I'm 8 months post op and super thankful that I had this opportunity to improve my health. This surgery has given me so much I couldn't be happier with where I'm at. Goal weight is so close I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! December 2016: 311lbs, Size 24/3X December 2017: 190lbs, Size 12/L
  13. Gorgeous!! Thank you for posting! I see you around here often and your advice is always appreciated. You’re a huge inspiration! I’m 7 months out and seeing your success 3 years out is so motivating!
