80 pounds gone

204 v. 146

I am in the 9th week post surgery and down ALMOST 40 lbs. I'm 62 yoa and work out 5 days per week (elliptical and weight machines at Snap Fitness for about 45 min).

Heaviest 285 and now 175

10 days shy of 4 months post op from gastric bypass. Pre-op testing showed a massive Type IV hiatal hernia. 2/3 of my digestive system was in my chest.

Photo in black pants is today 9/29/2022
THIS was the BEST thing I’ve ever done for myself.

My turn!!! First pic is pre-surgery. Needed a cane to get around. Was in a size 28. Second pics are from today (about 10 minutes ago) and down 90 pounds. In a size 22. No more cane!!!

First photo is from an Alaskan cruise in 2019. The second is at 60 lbs loss while on vacation in Miami.

These are the Christmas pants I got from my family last year. I weighed 250lbs Dec 2021 & I've lost 67lbs since then!

This is my halfway point. 75lbs left to lose! 3x to xl so far.

I am around 10 months out but need to loose 20/30 more and can’t!

you look fantastic

Facebook memories showed me this Christmas picture from five years ago. While not my highest weight, there's definitely a difference to be seen. So here's the five years ago pic, one from April of this year (5 months PRE OP), and one from today (3 months POST OP). I don't smile with teeth often, so hopefully that awkwardness doesn't show lol.

I ordered these pj pants many years ago and never wore them because they were too small. They're a men's size L/XL. The difference losing 115lbs makes!
