Awesome job thanks for sharing because for some of us men we are more chicken than women getting surgery lol

But the more I read these positive stories I feel better. I hope I can be a positive influence myself someday.

Are you still trying to decide on what procedure ?

I definitely decided I'm going for the sleeve I already lost about 30lbs eating Protein and low carb and having a Protein shake everyday. I'm so determined to get my life back including buying another Harley lol

I'm in the NJ area and it's cold but hope to get some exercise in next. I wish you all the best I hope we can stay in touch.

No surgery date yet it looks like February if all goes well. Ok on living in NY so you know cold ;) I normally like to take off a month after Christmas and do the snow bird thing to FL but this surgery is more important. Can you still have coffee if any or is it Decaf only?

I have a Poland Spring cooler being delivered today I got to get more Water in I'm told. Have a great day

Hey y'all!!

Long time, no talk - training for a half marathon and work has been insane lately!

My two year surgiversary was November 20th, and I tried on my old Cotton Ball dress because it was hanging in my closet, lol. (Cotton Ball is a southern cotillion ball - traditional thing with debutantes, etc. - I was 17 when I did it).

Left is from my wedding <3 that dress is a size 28; the one on the right is a size 8 (I'm a 6 generally, but bridal does run small!)

HW: 330

No skin removal

Wow you look amazing. Like two totally different people. Congrats on all your hard work.

So as of March 2nd, (2 days past my 9 month surgeversary) I have reached my goal weight!!!!!! I am ECSTATIC! I never NEVER dreamed that it was possible to be this small! And even better, I feel incredible! This journey has been truly life changing! 9 months, and 111lbs lost! It doesn't even seem real!

High weight: 236

Starting weight: 223

Current weight: 125!!!

Started out at a size 16/18. Now (and this is still hard for me to believe) I am a size 3!!! I've never been a 3 in my life!

I think I owe you my life! The first time I saw your before and after photo (in the purple sweat shirt) I was considering throwing in the towel. This was costing too much money. My insurance covers something if I cover my $2500 deductible!

But when I saw your photo my husband walked past and said "Wow she looks amazing. You're going to be that small again too."

I have never been that small! Lol but my husband was trying to be supportive so when he told me to think of this as an investment. I knew I had to do it. February 6th 2017.., I can't wait!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
