No, I haven't had any plastics. I'm not sure I'll be able to afford it. But I'm thinking I will wait a year before deciding what I will do.

I was self pay so still recovering financially from that lol

Best money you ever spent - I'm sure you feel like you have your life back.

Well done,

Deano

Thanks everyone!!

You look great! What were your stats if you don't mind sharing? Any tips? I am four weeks out and started close to your weight. How inspiring;)

Congratulations - you look great! How tall are you? My goal is also 120lbs even though everyone thinks that is too thin - but I am only 5'3".

I had surgery on 9/10/12 - did your weight loss slow down at some point or were you a consistent loser throughout. I am averaging 2.5 lbs per week and wondering if/when it is going to slow.

My stats, I'm 41...5'2 height

surgery date May 15th 2012

Starting weight 220

Current weight 130

My biggest tip would be to drink lots of Water and always eat Protein first then healthy vegetables, if there is room. Try to find a healthy balance that you can do and really try and focus on a lifestyle change that is healthy. We consume so little that its important to our health to make every bite count.

I love hearing about everyone's success.

Thank you all for your kind words!!

It means a lot!

I forgot to add that yes I had many stalls and lots of frustration until I realised every pound is adding up and I'm losing not gaining. I had stalls and then I would drop several pounds unexpectedly.

Don't let the scale control you, follow your plan and you will be successful <3
