Love this thread! I can't add anything....YET. I get sleeved on Sept 14th and I am beyond excited. But here are the can't waits for me:

1. I can't wait to stop shopping in the Plus Size Dept.

2. I can't wait to wear more form fitting clothes. I hate the loose fit that is supposed to hide my fat!

3. I can't wait to shop for a bathing suit....and like it!

4. I can't wait to wear dresses and show off a little leg!

5. I can't wait to wear tank tops in the summer!!!

6. I can't wait to wear boots...the ones that don't have the extended calf.

7. I can't wait to be able to run up and down the steps at work instead of taking the elevator.

8. I can't wait to get a new hair style...another phase of my complete makeover!

9. I can't wait to get off my blood pressure medications.

10. I can't wait to stop snoring....my husband will be forever grateful too!

And finally....

11. I can't wait to shop for sexy undies and show them off to my husband!

These are just a few of my favorite can't waits.... It's almost here!!!

After a bit less than seven months I have lost ... 43 kilos (95pounds) and reached my goal weight!

So yeah, my surgeon was quite amazed when he saw me last week for a check-up! I am pretty glad to be honest :) I even dared to go to the beach and actually be shirtless, this hadn't happen in years!

When you finally get rid of all the too big clothes cos in your mind you were still worried you would need them.... My yr is coming in November I finally took all of the way way too big clothes and gave them to a family that can fit them... And been trying to buy clothes that fit now.... it's a very humble amazing and beautiful experience.My weight came off faster then I ever expected... And the docs said I would only lose 80 pounds I think I far surpassed their and my own expectations.Not saying it was easy. It's still work..... ( def not the easy way out) But so very worth it to fit into clothes that to my eyes look tiny. Still gotta get my mind to catch up with what my eyes are seeing :) So proud of everyone here. And look at all the amazing things we have done.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
