When you look back in time is when you truly realise how far you have come.

@takroom thanks . I just hit the 1 yr mark. I still have 7 kilos to go and toning to get through.

@courtroommp....lol thanks. One was a wedding where I realized I needed to desperately lose weight that's what rooted me towards surgery

OMG you look beautiful. I can't freaking wait for my turn!!!!!

@ ready to lose it....I started out at 102 kg which was about 225 lbs and I had surgery at the beginning of march 2012. I lost most of the weight by November in about 9 months. I now weigh 72 kg which is about 159 lbs bringing my loss to 30kg or 66 lb. I did both metric and imperial measurements coz I haven't actually calculated before. I have 7kg to hit goal of 65kg or 143lbs.

@bmordan pls read my last post I put up all my weight figures. I stand 5ft 7.5" tall

@alobri it's an amazing transformation. A little hard work goes a long way. Good luck with it and keep us posted on progress

Hi there!

First of all, you look amazing!! :-) but just wanted to ask a few questions if that's okay? I was wondering what sort of food you eat and how much you involve exercise in your life? It's pretty obvious you are looking GREAT!! & wanted to see what path you took (obviously beside the sleeve) to get to where you are today!! I am 4 months post op this month & have lost close to 60 pounds, which I am totally stoked about but just wanted to see what you did :-) !!

@alahana....a typical food day for me is a smoothie for blast this has oats,skim milk, amaranth, lecithin granules, cinnamon and some honey. I am obsessed with this smoothie it tastes delicious

That sounds delicious!! :-) do you exercise a lot? Or did you over the past year??

@alahana. Sorry the post got sent before I finished typing lol. Fat fingers when typing. Anyway the lunch is typically a protein and some veg and the same for dinner. I don't always have good days I have a majorrrr sweet tooth so I do indulge I believe more than the average sleevers in cakes, cappuccino's and cola but I do work out more then. The key is to make sure exercise becomes a part of your life. I don't obsess over it but I do 20 mins of strenuous cardio and 40 mins of weight training 4-5 times a week. But I am a slow loser and I believe it's because I dont always make great choices

Good answer! I guess you still have to live life & I thank myself every day for getting the sleeve & not the bypass because I must admit, sometimes I have eaten the wrong food and I know I would have been very ill if it was the bypass I got!! Phew!! :-) well congrats because you really look amazing :-)

I definitely think the sleeve has way more benefits than the bypass so good on you. If you need any help along the way feel free to message me.

Thanks heaps!! :-)

Woah you look great!!

You look amazing!! Congrats!!
