THank you, Brandi!

I did have 2 drains, spoiltmom. They came out 5 days post op and the other 12 days post op. I saw my PS for my 1 month checkup and she is very pleased with the results. I see see imperfections but, well pointed out, no one is perfect but I am a LOT better than I ever was. My husband has even noticed a new found confidence and LOVES it! It was the best thing I ever did for myself!

Please be sensitive ... I have been on threads where people have made negative comments about any number of things. It took a lot of courage for me to put these pics up here. I had my TT done 13 days ago and still swollen a bit. I am feeling pretty well, just tired mostly. I have added the pre-op pics .... I will warn you, they are NOT pretty! I am not perfect but I am on my journey.....

Thanks, Katie

First I have to say is HOLY COW! Girl you look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!

Secondly, Why in the HELL would anyone on a weight loss forum say anything NEGATIVE about someone elses AMAZING results! That really makes me sad! Everyone here should be offering nothing but SUPPORT or nothing at all. It really just gripes me!

But seriously you have so much to be proud of and I can't wait to get to the point that you are at! I WILL make it there!

I'm hoping within about 16 months I can lose the weight *100lbs) I want with good exercise and diet and then get my Tummy Tuck if i need it, which i think after 17 years of a big belly I will lol

Just looking at your pictures it amazes me at how much the skin makes you look bigger than you really are. You really look freaking awesome and you are such an inspiration! Thank you so much for having the courage to post your pics.

I plan to put up my pictures on here starting with the day of surgery and a monthly picture to show how slowly or quickly my body changes just to monitor the new life i am creating for myself.

Thanks again for posting!

Johnathan

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
