It is hard to believe that today I am 16 weeks post op and that I am actually posting under "Success Stories"! As of this morning I have lost 69 lbs and am officially in ONEDERLAND!!! To make things better, I slipped on for the first time in 20 years a pair of size 14 pants!!!

I was fortunate to have had a quick, uneventful recovery. Weight dropped off quickly at first, but really has slowed down this past month and I am ok with that. As I was giving my youngest a piggy back ride around the house the other day, I had the realization that I have lost her in weight. I also thought "How did I carry this much weight around all day, every day? No wonder I never had energy".

So glad i did this for me!!!

Congrats! That is a wonderful story.

It is just wonderful.Congrats!

You've just made me realize that my 11 year old(whom I cannot carry around anymore) weighs less than I have lost.

Great going!

Awesome!! Congratulations on your sucess!

That's so awesome! Good for you! I cannot imagine what it will be like to be in Onderland. I reckin it will be fabulous!

Yay!! I'm happy for you =D What a great feeling to have that all off your back! It's amazing how weight creeps up on us and we don't even realize what a ridiculous amount we were carrying around every day. Once we put it in perspective it's like holy crap - no wonder I was feeling horrible all the time! I am carrying around 2 people right now in weight! Keep up the great work, you deserve it!

So glad you're doing so well.
