100lbs Lost - Can't believe this is me

  • Popular Post

Today is my 7 month surgiversery! I can't believe how far I have come. I remember confessing to my husband the night before my surgery "what if this doesn't work, what if I fail?" As of today I have lost 101lb pounds. I am not at the finish line yet, but I know I will get there! I am 5'9", my start weight was 285 with a BMI of 42, I wore size 24-26 pants and 2x-3x tops. Today I weigh 184 lb, BMI 27.1, I wear size 14 pants and Large tops. I am so pleased with my progress, and I know for the first time in my life that my goals will become reality. I would do it all again in a heartbeat!

I love to see the incredible success stories like yours. it's a truly life saving/life changing experience for thousands of people that would never have come this far without the VSG. I pray that 6 months or a year from now, I can be as inspirational as you are. Would you please share with us information about your journey? Such as what did you lose the first month and then monthly averages, what are the best tips you can give newbies etc. thanks soooooo much! (I'm 5 weeks out and down 18 pounds, 66 more to go, 5'6" and started at 232)

Congratulations you look great ! Keep on going!

Congrats on all your sucess. Our stats are almost identical. Posts such as yours are so appreciated. March 18th cannot get here fast enough ;)
