I had my surgery on 3/14/13 and have since lost 53 pounds.

I can move. I can cross my legs. I mowed the freakin lawn the other day. I'm living again. I even bought a dress for the summer. I'm not a slave to food. I don't go to bed at night hating myself for being too weak to not get fatter. I was digging my grave with a knife and a fork, and now I feel awesome.

I had my doubts the first month. I regretted the surgery. And I missed my carbs. I still get some cravings, but it's not like that I HAVE TO HAVE IT kind of thing. My food addiction is controlled, and that is the best part of all of this.

Now I just need to start working out!!!

You look awesome, congrats!

You look awesome! How is your skin holding up?

Woohoo! You look amazing! How tall are you?

Thanks, guys!

My skin is doing well. I'm only 30, so I have that on my side. I can see a bit of loose jiggle on my inner thighs and tummy, but I'm not concerned. I should have started working out a while ago to combat that, but I'm an idiot lol

And I'm 5'9"

Way to go! Great progress!
