One month.

Thank you so much!! It means a lot to hear that after such a long journey struggling with weight my whole life. Here’s a few before and afters including a tiktok I made but never posted haha.

I’ve been very lucky with having minimal loose skin. I have been taking a collagen supplement daily and started that months before the surgery. I think that combined with a good strength training regimen and perhaps also because I got the surgery at a relatively young age (33) helped.

For workouts I do an hour 5-6x a week; half cardio (indoor cycling or running) and half strength training. All of my strength has been the peloton strength classes. If you happen to have a peloton membership You can see my full program on my profile DucesWild, follow me!! Highly highly recommend peloton it has made it so much easier, convenient, and fun to workout. Finding classes I actually enjoyed and not pushing myself too hard, just committing to staying consistent moving my body, whether it be a walk or yoga on days I didn’t feel well, that has been the KEY so far. Hope this helps! Happy to share more details.

I had surgery 6/14/21The right one is from the other day almost 5 months out from surgery these pics are 100lbs different

I am down to 130lbs (-70lbs) at 7 months post op! I've gone from a size 12 to 2 and expect to be in maintenance now. Weight loss has definitely flatted out, but I am SO happy with where I'm at now. If I can keep myself at the current weight, I'd be a happy camper! How are you doing?!

I am 4 months post op gastric bypass and I don’t recognize myself I can’t believe I’ve lost 85lbs this surgery has saved my life and even through the ups and downs I wouldn’t change it for anything

One year after. 150 down.

HW: 210 +
CW: 124
GW: 112

I havent reached my goal weight yet but losing weight now has got tougher. So I ve structured my eating more and started cardio. The before picture is unreal, I didnt see myself like that at the time. Anyway, I am grateful for this place and the support I received from everyone

Never thought I would see this number. 195 is the top number for “healthy bmi” so I am almost there. That was my goal…. But I think I can go lower than 195 because I still have pockets of body fat to loose. I hit this number 9 months post surgery.

Highest weight: 330 pounds
surgery weight: 297 pounds
Goal weight: adjusted… was 195 but maybe 180? i don’t know. We will see.
height reference: I’m six feet two inches tall. So super tall for a woman. 😅
I have not been this weight since junior high school. (7th/8th grade)

The first photo was taken on September 29, 2021. The second photo was taken on December 7, 2021 about 5 months post op with a 20lb weight loss. I can’t believe I’m down 2 pant sizes already. Apparently my doctor prescribing a binder he didn’t know it has a dual purpose. One it’s for medical reasons and two it’s better then using a belt to hold your pants up.

I love seeing all the before and afters! I am a little over one year out, I have lost 96 pounds (and counting). Close to my goal!

November 2021

My life was in turmoil, then I met a surgeon that saved my life!

Still a long way to go but it sure does feel good to be able to live.
