Going for a walk on the beach!

Thanks I love that I can step out of the box and get outfits like this! This surgery was the best thing I've done!

Meeting some old time friends 👭

Love this thread! I still have 27 lbs to go but I already feel awesome!

Thank you! I got it here in Brazil!

Out and about.

Sightseeing today!

I’m currently in Brazil so everything I got is pretty casual.

Good morning y’all...just came to thank you all for the support and also to share my progress so far. Almost 9 months pp and down from a size 18/20 to a size 8/10! I am in Brazil because my mother had some serious medical issues and don’t have a scale around but last time I weighed I was 90 lbs down and have 28 more to go to reach my goal. I am beyond happy! Hope you’re all doing great!

Hi everyone...how are you all doing? I am in Brazil since 04/30 because my mother had a heart attack followed by kidney failure, pneumonia and pulmonary edema ☹️ she was only able to have heart surgery (triple bypass) on 06/25 and is still in the hospital...I’ve been with her in the hospital since I arrived and will stay here until August to help her through recovery...needless to say, I haven’t really paid attention to what I eat and stopped exercising. Still, I managed to lose 16 lbs and am now 83 lbs down with another 35 to go! I started exercising this week and eating better so I can be at my goal weight by the obe year mark! It’s a daunting task but I’ll try my best to get there by 10/30 🤞 Best if luck to you all!

I had the sleeve on 10/30/18 and I was 268 lbs then, 6 months later and I’m down 72 lbs weighing 196 🙌

Good morning everyone I just took my 6-month pics (although I’ll be 6 months on the 30th) and wanted to share my results with you all. I lost a total of 71 lbs and 69” overall. Down from size 20 to 12 and pretty damn happy I had this surgery! I still have 47 lbs to lose and intend on reaching my goal weight by October. Even if I don’t reach my goal I am still happy with my results. Have a great day y’all

Congrats 🎉🎊🎈 I hit my 5-month mark on the 30th and my hair too is falling out...I went to see a dermatologist and she told me to try a supplement called “Viviscal Professional”. Now it has to be the Professional one. So I was able to find it online for $60 and started taking it...I noticed my hair loss has diminished so it might be worth a try for you. She also said that if the Viviscal didn’t work, to try Minoxidil shampoo. Hope it helps.

Sorry for the delay, didn't see it till now...I got the bra at Walmart the Hanes brand. Pretty comfy.

I am so close to ONEderland that I can taste it! Lol...5 months in, 60 lbs down 🙌 I am so grateful for this surgery m, it really brought me back to life! P.S. same pair of shorts on both pictures. Have a great day y’all ❤️

I’ll be 5 months postop on 03/30 and am pretty happy with my results. So far I’ve lost 57 pounds and went down from size 20 to 14! I am closer and closer to onederland and have been doing great with nutrition and exercise. I do HIIT workouts 6 times a week and have been eating 800-1100 calories, getting in protein and water. Both my surgeon and nutritionist are beyond happy with my results and as they said “I’m doing great, don’t change a thing” I hope you are all happy and doing well too!

I was getting 700-800 a month ago and hit a 3-week stall. I started a Beachbody program by trainer Shaun T and had to increase my intake to keep energy up for workouts. Is 6 days a week of high intensity 30-min workouts plus yoga on Sundays. I've lost 4 lbs last week consuming 1100-1200 calories. My NUT said not to go over 1450 though, I've been following that and losing...I get a little anxious with the amount of calories although everything is pretty lean and high protein.

I’m a little curious as to how many calories are you guys consuming daily. I’m staying between 900-1300 and found that if I have less than 900 I hit stalls! I am thinking is because of the high intensity workouts I ak doing now and need more calories to burn more? 🤷‍♀️

I’m 3.5 months postop and down 50 lbs and down from a sz 20 to a 14! I still have a long way to go but am pretty happy with my progress so far! This is the year I get my life back on track.

Thanks ❤️

Thanks. I got them at a Tommy Hilfiger store a couple years ago. These are sz 14.

I haven’t had any hair loss yet but I’ve been taking biotin and collagen since first week after surgery to prevent that and flabby skin...I think that’s why I haven’t had any issues yet. I have a friend who’s a couple years postop and she said hear hair is still growing back so she keeps it very short and we don’t see any bald spots...it’s different for everyone I guess.

Good morning all! Just took some progress pics to compare to the ones I took prior surgery. 3.5 months in. Down from size 20 to 14. Down almost 50 pounds. Let’s do this 💪🙌

I know it's impossible not to worry or compare your journey to someone else's but, I honestly think we are all doing great! I mean, when would you imagine losing over 35 pounds in 3 months? I am on the slower end also (3 months today and 38 pounds down since surgery) and I am damn happy with it! I find that not weighing yourself often and also not to worry about the weight is a big helper. My surgeon was pretty happy with my results and even told me that he believes, at this rate I can get down to 165, although my goal is 150 I am pretty excited about realistically getting close to that...I also prefer to lose slowly to avoid losing too much muscle mass rater than fat...so I am completely OK with my journey and not stressing about it at all! I know you heard this countless times, but it will come off.
