Tiff, aren't you just the cutest thing in that baseball cap.

I only hope I can do half as well as you have. You should be the spokesmodel for VSG surgery.

Here are my Before, During and NOW (after) Pictures:

First 80 pounds lost 4 months post-op

Here I am right before Goal of 150lbs, I think I'm within like 5-7lbs of goal weight:

About 123lbs gone: 7 months post op, below goal by 5ish pounds

27lbs below goal weight. . . I'm 123lbs here

Family Pics (I wasn't even at my highest weight here, I had my band around 2 months here, so I was right around 245-250 here, my highest weight was 270lbs)

And here I am 2 weeks ago, hovering around 125-129lbs on any given day. I've bounced up to 131lbs, but got back to basics and now I like my bounce around weight of 125-129lbs.

I went from a size 22/24W to a size 2 for most retailers, 3-4XL tops to a XS/S. Size 11 panty to a size 5 panty, bra size went from a 40/42D/DD to a TINY 32B.

Lookin' good!!! Thanks for posting!

yeah, tiff. truly an inspiration. What was your exercise regimen like?

I didn't work out for 4 months with the exception of some walking. I only started lifting weights 3-4 days a week, and one day of cardio, and I only did that for 4 months because at 8 months post-op I had to have my gallbladder removed so and that was a full 12 months ago, and I never got back into working out.

So, I never did any formal exercising until 4 months post-op. Joined the Y, started working on building muscle, and did Hip HOp Abs one day per week, plus some isolated core workouts.

There's 2 different ways to post pictures into a topic.

1) Upload the photo to photobucket.com then there will be links given for "sharing". Copy the "DIRECT LINK" code, come back here and at the top of the reply box there is a little box that looks like a landscape picture, like a mountain with some Water. It's on the same row as the FONT (Bold Italics Underline) boxes, it's 2 over from the Smiley Face Icon. If you put your mouse over it, it will say "INSERT IMAGE". Click that box and PASTE that code into the box, hit enter. The photo will pop into the topic box.

2) If you have the picture saved, say on Facebook, or any other website, you can Highlight that photo, right click hit COPY, and then come back here and right click to Paste the photo directly into the topic. If you upload the photo to your gallery, you can also use the copy/paste technique from there. You'll just need to open a new tab or window so you can click back and forth between the 2 pages.
