U went from an 18/20 to a 12 in just over a month? That's insane! These posts are so inspiring, especially since I am just 6 days post op. I also started at a 18 and bought a size 10 dress for next spring. At this rate I will probably fit Into a lot earlier than then!:) plz share ur secrets people!

That's so exciting! I wear a 2xl in scrubs but recently ordered a size large pre op in anticipation that they will fit in a few months. I figure even if my body levels out at a medium then at least my scrubs will be a little loose..just how I like them ;)

I did!! So very exciting. I am 5'6". I started out at 221 and as of this morning I am 193. I am eating well and never feel deprived. I am riding my bike at least 2-5 miles a day and walking 3-4 days per week. Nothing really strenuous or extra special as far as exercise. I had a small two week stall about two weeks ago. Everything is going good. You will see the same results. Just realize that everyone does things at their own pace. You will get there!!! Congrats on your choice to better your health.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
