Thank you for sharing your experience and pictures. I was having second thoughts because of family and friends hounding me about complications and the loose skin issue but seeing your pictures has really put me at ease with my decision. Thanks again :)

Thanks so much for sharing pictures of your journey...kind of what I needed tonight after feeling a bit down about my weight loss so far at the 5-week mark (not to make this about me, lol). You are an inspiration and you can see the confidence beaming through your photos!!

Great work and congrats :)

Dayum girl! You look fantastic!!!

I really needed to see this today. Getting ready to book my flight to MX for my surgery and I'm so nervous. Not about MX, about surgery in general. But it's good for me to see the other side of this. You're where I want to be!

Congratulations on all your hard work! :)

You look beautiful congratulations! I am going to start working out next week' date=' what would you recommend? What about food, we're you eating anything in particular?[/quote']

Ok I wrote a comment to this already but for some reason it didn't post so lemme try again...I'm glad ur starting ur work out cuz I really think that IS what helped my progress..I started working out from week 1...light stuff at first walking every day, and light weight I didn't start any core exercises till about 2 Months out but I was doing zumba and the end of my first month..for food...lol..this is gonna sound terrible but I ate what I wanted...now don't get me wrong I normally ate really healthy, made sure to get my Protein in and lots of fruit n veggies..but if I wanted a snack I ate the snack..because I'm the type of person if I crave something and I don't eat it...I will eat everything else In site till I get what I want...but I only ate it In Moderation..and I made sure to Fri.k lots of Water...that will help hydrate the skin and help with its elasticity..hope that helps.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
