Cibu platinum is by far the best purple Shampoo I’ve ever seen or used (I’m a hairstylist). Be careful with purple shampoos and conditioners though because if you leave them on longer than suggested you end up with lavender.

I’m weighed in today and I’m proud and humble to say that I’m down 102lbs. It’s been the best 4 months ever. I’m so excited to continue to accomplish my goals. Thanks for being apart of my journey. Xoxo

Hi! I’m 5’1- I was sleeved in November. Highest weight was 282.2 lbs, surgery weight was 256.6 lbs. As of this am I’m 158.8 lbs- so down nearly 100 lbs in 6.5 months. I’ve got another 33 lbs til I hit my goal.

275 to 149
This is 2 weeks shy of my 1 year surgery

I had to take off my wedding rings and bought silicone ones a size smaller. I bought boots that actually go up my calves.

Just had my six month follow up visit, and everything is going great. I was sleeved on 11/15/17 and was 333 lbs and a size 28, and weighed in today at 239 and am down to a size 16. What an amazing journey this has been. I can’t wait to hit that goal weight! Keep on posting people!!! I LOVE SEEING THE UPDATES! So proud of all of us!

I was hornswaggled and bamboozled away from the primary argument and transported, LEVIOSUM, to the dimension where you're tugged into the bullying bs. (And I've no doubt there is a need to get down on REAL bullying, especially to kids in school and on the internet.)
Sigh. I'm about as sick of this #bullytoo stuff as I am the #metoo stuff. Sorry. Color me insensitive. Apologies in advance.
Anyone with four eyes (like Harry and me) can see that JK Rowling does not portray fat people well. She may very well have a bias against us. Who the frick cares? You do you. I'll do me.
Didn't like the writer at all. Plus she KNEW that she could pick a bone with 'em and probably was going for the free rides at Universal angle for being thrown off HP...

On the other side, if the author's main concern that JK Rowling wasn't very fat-friendly. I'm amazed that it took her so long to figure that out. Doesn't seem like her reading comprehension is all that great. Don't get me wrong - I love the books and have read the entire series multiple times, but "fat-friendly"? No.

Sorry, I can't get behind this at all. There are things I have been unable to do because of my size and I have experienced the embarrassment of having to get an extender on an airplane but her premise is garbage. Seats (in anything except maybe a bus) cannot be designed for all body sizes. She apparently never noticed the "You must be this _______ tall to ride" signs? They're not discriminating against the very short, it is for safety. The restraints will not keep them secure. I guarantee that on those rides that go over the shoulders, there are people who are too tall, as well. Weight is another of those issues. If you make the restraints large enough for someone who is 350 pounds, how are they going to work on an 8-year-old? Then what do you do when a 450 pound person complains? Would the author have been happy if they'd let her ride because she bullied them into it and then the restraint failed during the ride?
Additionally, all the forces that determine whether the car will stay on the tracks, whether the wheels will pop off, whether welds will hold, etc. are based on a presumed range of weight limits and the amount of rotational force that weight will generate. This has nothing to do with being invisible, just physics.
As she is a writer, I presume she has never had to run a business or she'd realize that you can't EVER please everyone. Businesses want customers to be happy, but they'd forever be running in circles trying to accommodate everyone.

I can proudly say that I now fit into size 36 pants.
Before my sleeve surgery in November 2016 I wore size 60.
I am beyond ecstatic. Down 240 pounds so far.....

I had a good friend of mine tell me that she hopes I don’t lose anymore weight from my face because my nose will look even bigger than it already does. Um ok? What do you even do wit that?

except start wondering how big your nose actually is and then compare to old before pictures and develop a complex about my large nose that I now obsess over.

Hi guys! 6 months post op. Highest weight was 228 a week before surgery, current weight is 175. Before surgery I felt hopeless, I thought, "There is no way I can lose 80+ lbs." I was so unhappy in the body I was living. Couldn't look at myself in the mirror, ashamed of how I let myself go, disgusted by my food addiction. I hated myself. I was at rock bottom and completely depressed at my highest weight. I'm about 52-53 lbs down and think to myself "only 25-30 more lbs to go" that is so much more achievable than 80+lbs was. I feel, hopeful that I can lose the 25+ lbs by July "my surgiversary". I'm just getting happier and happier every day and gaining my confidence back. Here's a progress pic from right before surgery to me currently.

Hi I had my gastric sleeve done 3 years ago. I'm not one for posting on these things but thought I would for you people who are going through the same thing I did, I'm 32 yrs old, have 3 kids. Ive always been big from as far back as I can remember, I always knew I was fat but had the confidence of a thin person!! I never really knew how big I was and no one told me! They probably assumed I knew I was fat!! Anyway after having my kids I just thought enough was enough and went to my doctor, she referred me to the hospital and luckily enough after a few appointments 7 months later I had a gastric sleeve, I was like a child waiting for Santa!! Wen I woke up I cried to my mum thinking I had made the wrong choice because of the pain I was in, few months later I felt fab!! 3 yrs later which is now and I feel great!!! Before my op I weighed 24 and a half stone, clothes size 26, I'm now very proud to say I now weigh 15 stone 5lb! And a comfortable 16 don't regret my choice one bit and if I can help anyone who's having doubts please listen to me it's life changing for the better, thanks for reading
