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.

My heaviest and my current side by side 95 lbs total 70 before surgery and 25 post op !

7 months post-op!

WOW!!! You look awesome!!!

Tomorrow is my 3 month surgery anniversary. I've lost over 70 lbs on this journey through the pre and post op phases. The before pic is not even from my highest weight, that was about mid 2020 but I got up to the 340s at one point.

Today I'm proud to say I fit back into a non plus size XL. From an XXXXL/22 to XL! I'm so happy to see the results beyond the scale.

I tried on two new shirts today to check my progress and was shocked to see them fitting.

Sorry tomorrow is my 3month post op appointment, Saturday is my 3 month anniversary haha

Found a pic from my heaviest and made this comparison. Can't believe how far I've come. [emoji15]

Also if u were wondering I blot out my hands because I have discernable tattoos on the sides of my fingers lol

175 lbs down. Work outfits, and swimsuits.

The picture on the right was yesterday; the one on the left was me close to my fattest. I'm eight months post-op and still losing weight, albeit much more slowly now. I was wearing size 46 pants that barely buttoned around my waist on the left; size 32 on the right. Size 4XL shirt on the left, L on the right. (The left is blurry because I had to crop and it didn't do it nicely. You can still see puh-lenty!)

Hell yea. Way to go!!!!!

I do not like having my photo taken, but here goes. My surgery was a week ago today. The photo in shorts was 3 days post op. Photo in white pants is one week post op.

This is a month difference. Still a very long way to go but good progress so far!
