YAY!!!! Today is exactly 3 months post op for me and things are going GREAT! I lost 20 pounds in the month before surgery and now am a totaly of over 80 POUNDS DOWN! It is unbelievable and I seriously catch myself NOT believing it when I look into the mirror.

Being newly single again (after breaking it off with my Fiance') it feels AMAZING to have cute guys hold open doors for me, to feel the glances when I walk into a room........... and trust me, I am NOT stuck on myself. It just really does amaze me how differently I have been treated ever since about 60 pounds down.

I am no longer afraid of the camera, and when I am out with friends I no longer want to find a table to sit behind to hide me fat a$$.... lol, love it! I am the girl whose foot wiggles all the time when i am sitting down, and the girl who would rather stand that sit when we are at the bar or at karaoke......... Please, don't think I am trying to sound conceited... I still have a LOT of things about my body that I hate and I in no way think that I am the cat's meow.... but damn I feel good!

I smile day in and day out. Little things that used to bother the crap out of me don't seem to matter as much anymore......... Life is good!!!

I will post some new pix as soon as I take some!

That's awesome!! You are doing an amazing job!!!!!

Congrats on your success!!!

My name is Wes and I am just a week away from my 3 month anniversary and feel so much better also. I am down 95 pounds total including my 3 week preop diet. I still have about 90 to 100 before my goal, but already a major difference in the way I feel and look. Everytime I see someone I haven't seen since my surgery, It gives me great satisfaction to see their reaction. I will post before and after pics when I get closer to my goal weight. I do go to the gym for about a 45 min workout every morning and it gets easier every day. I was wearing size 52pants and already in 42, my shirts were 4x and now comfortably in 2x. So the moral of this story to anyone contemplating the surgery is it is AWESOME!!! Congrats!!!
