I don't frequent the board enough there are so many wonderful stories, of success, so figured I'd share mine.. I had the operation on march 12th of this year, started at 347lbs pre op, now I'm 224lbs, and feel great.. My ideal weight is 190lbs but i want 215 or so.. to hit that in under a year is amazing.. It's been amazing, not much as a single issue, haven't even had any nausea since the first time I woke up from my surgery.. Eating has been a learning experience, since I was a big eater, and enjoyed food.. Now I cherish a ice cream sandwich every now and then.. I have bat loads more energy, and my job has benefited from my productivity.. I read a lot of treads on here bout eating, and stuff and they were a tremendous help.. And for that I thank you guys! Well anyway here's a before and a after... Thanks again...

Now that's a good look there. Nice!!

You look mighty purty' date=' as we say here in Kentucky!!

I'm the same as you - not quite six months out, no problems, eat whatever I want, just not much of it! Not a single regret.

Come talk with us more often![/quote']

No skin issues I'd say it tighten up pretty good, I haven't worked out yet.. Hopefully it'll get tighter ..

Older women are better! They know what they want.. Most of the time..
