You look amazing.

(Disclaimer - I'm a guy and I think like a guy) You're right in a group of three girls there's sometimes 'the fat one' but there's almost always 'the hot one'.

You're lucky you have supportive long term relationships with them. You've gone from 'the fat one' to 'the hot one' in 7 months. Most girls would be insanely jealous! :P:)

Wow!! Dean is right... and I AM jealous ;) You look fantastic. With the weight loss in your face, you look like a different person!! Absolutely stunning! And I don't think I've ever commented on a before and after picture, just "liked" or admired from afar lol, but I felt compelled to gush this time!! Definitely the hot one! ;)

You look amazing! I had to do a double take, actually. So what kind of workouts do you do? What do you typically eat in a day? I hope you don't mind all the questions, it's just that I love to hear from those who have done this thing!!

Thanks so much :) If you don't mind looking back at some of my old posts, I go into pretty in depth detail as to what I was eating and what I was doing for exercise. I will try to link some posts. For a short answer, right now I'm exercising 3-5 times a week for about an hour. I'll run 2-3 miles, 20 minutes of core, and then arms or legs depending on the day. I have oatmeal or eggs every morning, usually a salad or hummus/veggies plus some Snacks for lunch, and then just normal basic dinners based around Protein. I don't track everyday, and if I'm craving something I will have a bite of it. I also drink lots and lots of water! I feel like I really have broken my food addiction....I just think about what I am eating and try to make healthy choices. I will say for 4-5 months I was extremely strict with what I ate which I recommend because that's when you are losing the most weight!

You look amazing.

Dean...too funny! haha "Hot" has never been a word I would ever use to describe myself, but hey I will take it. I'm lucky to have great friends....especially since they have never been able to relate to any weight issues. They've been size 0's for as long as I can remember haha

Wow!! Dean is right... and I AM jealous ;) You look fantastic. With the weight loss in your face, you look like a different person!! Absolutely stunning!

Glad you commented1 haha I do the same thing sometimes...read all the posts, but don't always comment! I need to get better at that. Hope you are doing well :)

THANKS EVERYONE! You all are too kind :)

You look gorgeous! I'm so glad I read your post tonight. I'm 15 days post op and had a meltdown tonight...just feel like I won't ever recover and feel good again. It will be all worth it if I can have a success like yours! I started at 221, 5'2" tall. After 15 days I'm at 201 and have lost 2 inches in my waist already. My goal is to be about your size...which is the size I was in my early 20's.

Your success gives me hope! Thanks so much for posting!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
