Wow, Justin -- your skin is holding up. You look great!! Way to go!

2+ years (26 months) post op here. Got to my lowest weight this past summer, but now starting to put some back on. I know some is muscle since I've been working out a lot, but I'm thinking not all of the weight gain is lean mass....which worries me a little. So I'm going to have to pay a little more attention to my cal intake and be careful. I'm up to around 235 now and I need to get back to mid-upper 220's and learn to maintain there.

#1 is before....around 320

#2 is after majority of weight loss (220's)

#3 is current (235)

Ok, I'm only seeing lean mass there. Holy cow, what an awesome difference. You've really bulked up! I agree -- 235 looks good on you.

7 months out! 25 more lbs to go!

Quick question, do any of you remember having really bad burning feeling on the inside like where the incisions are at one week post op? Every time I move it feels like a match is being held to my insides at the upper incision site.

Yes I also had that for about 2 1/2 weeks. It was bad when i was walking even in the shower. Is normal

Yes. Totally normal. You have sutures sewed from the inside and pulled really tight so they are going to hurt for awhile. My upper one in particular took months to stop hurting. Doctor said it was totally normal. I'm 6 months out and one of my lower ones still aches when pressure is applied to the area, she thinks it is because they cut threw an abdominal muscle on that side... ??

Thank y'all!
