Before and After Pics

  • Popular Post

I love seeing the progress people have made after surgery. So for those comfortable enough to share them I'd love to see your before and after (and even progress) pics. I haven't had surgery yet (and wont for at least another 3mths) so I don't have any to post but I still like seeing what I have to look forward to. The pic below is me at my highest of 316lbs 2hrs after my son was born.

took me a better part of the day today to get through this entire thread. I am so proud of all of you and seeing how far you have come has truly inspired me. I was sleeved on Sept 10th and I am just starting my journey. I hope to be able to add to this forum with my own before and after pics soon. keep up all the great work!!!

This is the first time posting any pics. I am a couple days shy of 2 mos post op. Down 46lbs.

Great job! I won't have surgery until Oct 23rd but my starting weight will be around 230-240. I hope I can have a steady weight loss like you did. 46lbs in 2 months is awesome and you look great!

6 months post op VSG yesterday. 95 gone, 65 left to go. I'm still a work in process. Weight loss has slowed down, only 7 gone in the last month. Seem to be fighting for each pound now. Started at 325 so I've still got more to go but I sure feel better. Pictures DO help encourage me (for all you contemplating or pre-op). I'm so thankful for the excellent program at Vanderbilt University and for my awesome friends and family who have supported me. Just signed up for my first 5K in December. Time to take exercise seriously. post-196853-14107383293986_thumb.jpg

I am on day 6, hurting, and questioning the wisdom of my decision. I think this is just temporary - I pray it is - and that in another few weeks I'll start to feel better and hopeful. Please keep these posts coming. They are so encouraging to those of us who need a boost. God bless you all and love from Texas.
