Ok last month I posted my pre-op and my pics thus-far in my journey. I think I stated on the post that the pics were taken in June and I ended up not having surgery until middle of August and had gained 14 more pounds between those dates, but I didn't have pictures reflecting that weight.

Well, I sent my recent pics to the doctor as a testimony for her facility and I was sent a very sweet thank you for my correspondence and they attached my surgery day pre-op pics. WOAH, I was surprised when I saw those puppies...I thought I would share them with ya!

Ha! I wish I looked that good on my pre-op day. I don't think I'd taken any pics in awhile, unless it was forced on me. I was looking so huge!

Thanks for sharing!

MissDiva: I think that is why it was so weird for me to see. I had not allowed any full body pics to be taken of me in forever. I would hide behind people if someone came at me with a camera.

Thank you though. It was just so....raw and not posed.... it was shocking for me!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
