90 pounds gone, 47 to go!

In just 7 months (almost to the day, my 7 month anniversary of my surgery will be 7/28). I have lost 90 pounds. I can't believe I'm just 10 pounds away from triple digits.

In honor of that, I've updated my signature ticker (which hadn't been updated since I was at 261), I also edited my profile pictures and added some more current pictures of me.

I'm attaching a picture to show what you can accomplish in 7 months.

Congratulations, I love reading positives like yours. It gives me such inspiration. Thank you for sharing.

Wow. You are looking fantastic ???‰way to go

Awesome!

Wonderful... keep up the good work...

Great. Thanks for the picture and hope that can happen. Would like to know if you have any flabby loose skin since losing so much weight. It is not noticeable from your picture. How were you able to accomplish that.

First I would like to say thanks to all the well wishes. It's been a long journey, and i still have a ways to go.

To answer your question, yeah I do have a lot of extra skin, on my back and stomach and thighs. It's really annoying because when I'm clothed and standing up it hangs and makes me look faster than I am (almost like a perpetual muffin top), and when I bend over it hangs from me.

I added some pictures from about 10 to 15 pounds ago. You can see the muffin top effect and the way it hangs. But it will hopefully go away within the next few years, I'm pretty young and my skin has been taken care of pretty well.
