You really do look fabulous!! At what point were you able to 'believe' that it really would work for you. I'm still at that doubting phase. lol

I think about three months is when I started feeling better and really seeing a difference. You will get there for sure!

Wow! Thank you Disney! Oh...I have a lot right around my tummy....it seems to want to hang around. The funny thing is, if I don't lose it....I'm still perfectly happy!

Despite having seen quite a few before and after pictures the first thing that popped in my head when I saw yours was "Wow people do get thin with this surgery!". :lol: It's still shocking. You look GREAT! Congratulations.

Down 110lbs! 30lbs to goal!

In the picture where I'm wearing the pink, I'm down 100lbs. The other picture is me down 110lbs. What's weird is that I was so fearful that this wouldn't work for me. I do have some issues that I deal with due to the surgery, BUT I do not regret it at all!

You look great and congratulations!!!!!!

AMAZING! How inspiring you are:) I can't wait to have my sleeve surgery on the 17th of Sept. so I can begin my journey. I am nervous about the surgery and keep thinking "what if I'm the one that surgery doesn't works for" Did you have to exercise to lose the weight? Congratulations on your successful journey so far

Other than getting into much smaller clothes (yeah!), I shocked a couple of friends when they have seen me....even ones that see me on a semi-regular basis. The look on their face has been wonderful....to me! :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
