Did you have to have any cosmetic surgery? You look awesome

Ha! You made my day! No cosmetics. My saggy, flabby, skin tucks nicley into my pants and shirts. I swore that I wouldn't be sad and not enjoy the weight loss because of the extra skin. It is an easier promise to make than to keep. ;-)

Holy crap! You look fricken amazing!!! Wow! All that hard work has paid off! What a huge transformation! So so happy for you. You must feel amazing!!

What has been your favorite thing since shedding over 150 pounds?

Great question! I think being "normal" has be the best friggin' part of the weight loss. Looking and feeling normal ...yep thats it!

You look amazing! I'm starting out at 50 pounds lighter than what you are, but I carry a lot of my weight in my stomach like you did. Is your stomach skin terrible? I know saggy skin is inevitable, but I can dream that maybe it won't be as bad as I think!

My stomach skin isnt terrible. I really thought it would be much worse. In clothes I look normal and if I wear a Spanx type thingy.. I almost look skinny. When I get to goal maybe I will be brave enough to take some skin pics. I was always curious about what people really looked like after a big loss.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
