Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: 1 Year Check In
I don't think anyone comes here anymore but wanted to post anyway. I am not doing so great on my journey. Put on so much weight and trying to fix it. From the pandemic to losing some family members and very recently losing my mom things have just been really hard. I am still trying but I'm extremely discouraged. My surgeon had already given up on me for not losing enough weight. I've been referred to another surgeon to figure out how to get me back on track. I pray everyone else's journey is going well.

I think I'm a 38D now but my poor girls look like deflated balloons, just pitiful. Don't even want to stay in the cups most days [emoji30][emoji23] Sent from my SM-N975U using BariatricPal mobile app

I’ve always been cold but with the weight loss I am FREEZING

How did you pick your user name?
Originally, I had my usual which was my actual first and middle name. I changed it because I was doing everything in secret and didn’t want to be tracked by any nosy people I might know. So it became my initials x my procedure. Nothing fancy

This is getting old.

Post Op Bra Size
I’m not done losing but so far I’ve gone from a 46DDD/48DD to a 40D. I don’t think my boobs will go any lower than a C cup because when I was smaller I was a C cup
