DAAAAAAAMMMNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's all I got to say! :) You got it going on. In your before photos, it seems like you're wearing all black, but in your after photo you have bright yellow on. I would assume that the bright colors are a symbol of how you feel on the inside. Radiant! You look so happy. :) Your journey is definitely an inspiration to us all. I can't wait to get sleeved and join that losers bench with you. GREAT JOB!!!

its sooo funny you mentioned the colors!!! its so true! sooo soo sooo true! i barely ever wear black now! it even goes with the decor in my bedroom. i redecorated my room & painted & all. the walls are a caramel/peanut butter color with brown decor. i never felt confident enough to be the girly girl that i am. im DESPERATELY dying to paint my room hot pink now! i felt so trapped in my body & my insecurities! now i feel alive & sexy & happy! :)

thank you for your comment :)

i cant wait for you to join the losers bench as well.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
