your look great, keep up the good work.. glad to see it..

Hi everyone! I'm a little over 6 months out and down 75lbs so I thought I'd post some pictures :) I'm really happy with my VSG. My weight loss has been creeping along the last few months so I have been doing low carb and it's going great. I feel much better on it! Just last week I started rowing! I have NEVER EVER done a sport. I even wear spandex <choke>. I went to Dollywood two weeks ago and rode the rides. Sex is great, life is great, I look great (in my opinion)! I'm loving my VSG!!!

/blush Thanks everyone. I started out at 276 and then loss 5lbs before surgery so 271 on day of surgery. 70lbs lost since surgery and I'm a couple weeks ahead of you Mommy2girls so we are about the same. I'm 5'6" too :) My weight loss is about 8lbs a month now hopefully I'll boost that up with rowing and I'm going to start working out. I have .8 to get to 199...I was 199 when I was in the 8th grade. I can't wait to be in onederland!

Wow I never realized how similar in stats you and I are. Same height, same BMI - I only have one pound to Onederland, you tiny less than. I was 272 on surgery day, you were 271... and our surgeries are about 3 weeks apart. Though I was 281 at the start of my pre op diet.

So funny because when I see how well you've done I don't even put it into perspective that we are so similar. It just always seems like everyone's far above me. I don't compare for the most part, but it's just funny that I don't give myself the credit... ya know?

That's crazy!! Anyway, just thought I'd mentione this. ;)

Thanks everyone! It's so odd to put that I weigh 198. One anything is crazy!

@Diva- I did notice how simular we are :) I can't help but compare myself. Unintentionally I set the same July 4th goal as you. I look at your pictures and I think, man she's skinny. It's odd how we don't see ourselves clearly.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
