Before and after one month feeling better
I wish I had a pic of before original surgery lapband where highest was 227 in 2009. I will find one . But for this part of my journey revision after band complications I was 188 and was starting to feel pain in my whole body. I know my pics are nowhere as dramatic as most. But I can tell my body hurts less. 25 to 30 pounds before I am no longer over weight according to charts . First two are before Rest after about month I am starting to feel my dorky self.

8 months before/after - 140lbs down - RNY GB
Fantastic job !!! I can’t wait to start running again. I have been hoping losing weight will help with nasty prolonged case of planter fasciitis.

Starting BMI of 33
Mine was 33 or 32 and yes I would do it again. I don’t want to be dealing with all these health issues as I age, I already hurt body wise, I can only imagine how much more painful it would be at 60 and 70.

To tell or not to tell
Only my immediate family knows. Since I was a lower BMI and revision well I remember all the comments ten years ago. So for me I am not telling and in my case since it’s not going to be terribly noticeable I am comfortable know one will guess either lol. I said I had a hernia repaired and that’s true my darn band did serious damage including herniated esophagus.

Weird question your legs are similar to mine in calves although I think my calves are bigger. How has the loss effected their measurements? I find in jeans I could go down a size everywhere but my calved ahh. I started at 17 1/4 and now they are 16 1/4 .
