Hey! I started at 355 (atleast that's how much I was when I finally had the courage to step on the scale!)
Got down to 326 for surgery.
I'm 8 months post op and weighed in at 233 yesterday! I had the sleeve.
Went from 4xl scrubs to an xo with room!
I struggle with food choices sometimes still, but that's part of the journey. I'm hoping to hit goal at 1 year post op. I'm aiming for 190! I'm 5'7

  

I'm 5'8 heaviest weight was 355 and surgery weight was 322. I just hit 6 months post op with the sleeve and am a little over 80lbs down! Current weight is 239! Hope this helps, good luck!

10 months today! Down 117.4 lbs since the picture on the left was taken. 256.6 lbs on the day of surgery to 139.2 lbs this morning.

20, wanted to do it when I was 16 but had no support and wasn't really ready for it mentally. I tried naturally for a few years, got down about 50lbs then weight went back up. Finally got in the program and worked on slowly changing habits for about a year. Didn't have any support still so I did it secretly and told family once I had my surgery scheduled. They finally came around and now I'm 9 months out, have family support and my brothers actually going through the program. Wouldn't have changed anything

My program limits carbs and fats at the beginning. Carbs should only come from veggies. Later we can work in carbs but still keep them low. I don't have any issues at this point so sticking to what is suggested is not a problem for me. That's great that your program turned out the way it did, It allows you to do what you need to without stressing. You seem confident and I'm sure you will have no problem being successful.

You look AMAZING! Congratulations on your loss and the non-scale victory of shrinking scrubs!

Sleeved on 1/10/2018. Down 112 so far.

I had a gastric bypass in April. I'm down over 70lbs since surgery and I feel great. Tonight I went public about the surgery so I felt like I was coming out. I feel good about the progress. The comparison is crazy to see. Because you don't see it day to day.

Don't apologize. You look great and should be proud of your progress!

Well if I knew how to delete my epic double post I would.

Good job!! Im 6 months out. I also had low b1 and Iron but it was at my 3 months appt. I got the Bariatric Advantage iron and b1 (which is hella expensive) but at my 6 month appt all my labs are back to normal! I just hit 80lbs down from surgery. Best decision ever.

I'm 5 months post op tomorrow! I finally hit my first major goal of 100lbs down. This is including what I lost before surgery.
I started last January (2017) at 355.2lbs, this morning I was 253lbs! Not sure what my goal weight is yet, as Ive been heavy my entire life, so I don't know what's a good weight for me. I think I'm aiming for the 180's! Just a reminder to trust the process, and enjoy the little NSV's and not just the scale. I had a month long stall last month and I hated it. I tried everything and turns out I wasn't eating enough!
Good luck to everyone, feel free to share stories or pictures!
Total loss=102lbs
Loss since surgery= 68lbs (5 months post op)
