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.

@skyewolfe : Congratulations, great job!!

P.S. your pirate costume is AWESOME

You should be real proud fantastic job

I went on weight watchers at 321 lost to 291 prior to surgery and today was 266. I havent gotten brave enough to take a full body picture..I'm sure I'll get there..sugery 11.6.2020 total lost since beginning weight loss process 55 pounds.

Kleah73,

congratulations on your success thus far. The fact that you lost some weight on your own, will give you an advantage on this journey.
I had my surgery on 8/25/19. Prior to my surgery I had lost 35 pounds over a two year period. My highest weight was 315 pounds and I cried when I saw that. My weight at surgery was 280 pounds. Today I am at 171 pounds.
I was hoping just to get to 200 pounds when I started so I am over the moon with where I am. I am so accustomed to my modified eating habits (I haven’t had a coke since 8-05-19!) and exercise routine (30 minutes minimum at least 5 days a week) that it has become routine.

Just stay positive, keep up the good work and enjoy the rewards of this new adventure.

Thank you so much...i am so happy you took the time to respond. This story is so familiar. I too thought that I would be very happy at 220..i want to be healthy and happy so I am looking forward to the outcome. I am patient and I am completely happy with the weight loss of 1 to 2 pounds a week. Slow and steady.

Surgery date: 5/14/2020
Highest weight: 268
Starting weight: 258
Current weight: 153
New goal weight: 145

Highest weight - 334 (probably a little after the first photo)
Surgery weight -278 (36 weight watchers and 20 liquid prepop diet)
Current weight - 200
Goal weight - maybe 180

My before and after. Before was over 213 ( wouldnt get on a scale!) current weight is 143. 8lbs from surgeons goal!!!

Almost 5 1/2 months out and down 77lbs! The first picture was taken the night before surgery and I'm thankful I have it for comparison. This Surgery has saved my life in so many ways. [emoji3059]

High Five to everyone here! Amazing progress. ?

I will post soon. Getting my nerve up. Lol

I just posted this in another similar thread but this one seems more current. First picture is a few months pre-op when I was 296lbs and the second picture was a few months ago (about 4 years post op) at 165. The third one is from just a couple days ago. I am at 160lbs now, 5’8” and 28 years old.

I had my Gastric Bypass surgery in August 2019, surgery was a breeze but have suffered with sickness and nausea for the last year but due to Covid haven’t been able to see my surgeon. Was prescribed Odensetron which helps somewhat. But regardless of the sickness and not being able to keep foods down I do not regret having it done at all. Have lost over 140lbs .
