Sorry friend, I would not EVER let anyone take pictures of my muffin top. And, 8 weeks post op, my weight loss is showing in my face, boobs, my hips and legs -- but the stomach is always the last to go. I am an apple also.

Good luck on your journey.

Haha I didn't mean just pictures of actual muffin tops, I meant in fitted clothes! LoL basically a before & after pic....I know there are posts specifically before & after but it's a lot of weeding to find the pics!

I would help you out, but I avoided muffin tops like the plague! Lol Stuffed my rolls into mom jeans long before motherhood just so I could cover up my belly! I have before and "durings" on my profile page though :)

I will have to find some "before"pictures once I get home for you and take an after pic... But I can tell you our stats are kinda similar I am 5'6 DOS I weighed 264, my muffin top was awful...I was in a size 18/20 but really probably should have been a 22 or even 24... I wore Spanx to try and hide it every day... I am pretty much an apple on a stick I carried all my weight around my mid section... I am 7 months post op today I weigh 180lbs and I am comfortably in a size 12... I don't have much of a muffin top anymore unless I try to wear a size 10... My legs are still about 2 sizes smaller then I need to fit my mid section but now it seems as if the weight is coming more off my stomach and arms... I lost first from my back, legs, face, neck, side boobs and arms... While I have been noticing a slow down in my weight loss I am starting to notice BIG, no actually HUGE changes in my body FINALLY!

How about you start first by posting a current picture?

A current muffin top picture!? LoL all my pictures are of my face (love iphones front camera) I will take one of my muffin top & post it tomorrow lol it's late now!

I too wear the Spanx type under garments....but it's slowly getting bigger :0( my problem was plus size jeans it was assumed if you had a big stomach you had big thighs & legs so the jeans never fit right, they would fit in the legs & thighs but be a few sizes too small in the stomach!! Got to the point where I just used rubber bands to keep them closed instead of going up a size & sagging (sigh)

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
