9 Months Post Op And New To The Boards!



Recommended Posts

Hello! My name is Brittany. I am a 25 year old mother of 2 beautiful girls, I work and am in graduate school. I had my surgery last year on 11/23/11 (the day before Thanksgining). It has been one of the best decisions of my life. I have been lurking on these boards since before I had surgery and have finally decided to stop being antisocial and join already! I glad to be a part of the group now!

I'm glad too! This has been an amazing experience so far and I'm glad I'll be able to share it with you kind folks ;) I am thrilled having 95 pounds gone forever and I look forward to meeting my ultimate goal of losing 1/2 my body weight in the near future. In the mean time, 100 pound loss is so close I can taste it!

My diet has been pretty standard. Trying to get in fluids (although I could be much better), eat Protein when possible (although I am not nearly as strict as some others as I love Pasta lol) try to remember to take all of my Vitamins every day, and stay away from junk foods (although once in a blue moon I might have a handful of flaming hot cheetos lol). I find that when I do follow those guidelines I do feel much better. I was a serial dieter before the sleeve and now I feel like I eat like a thin person does. I eat well most of the time but I'm not afraid to indulge occasionally.When I do indulge, it is delicious and not shameful. Now that I am a bit futher out and closer to my goal (so close yet so far lol) I have to be a little more strict to sustain regular weightloss but nothing too intense. I hope that answers your question! And I am sure you will find all the success you desire 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!!

      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?
