100 LBS gone!

[twinsmama05 166]

Never to be back again! I made a promise to work hard and eat right and know always that this surgery is a great tool but along with working out and eating right I will be just fine! Ran my first 5 k and can't wait to do another one!

Sleeved nov 7. 277 lbs. today 177!!!

Way to go!!!! I'm 10 days post-op and I started at 277!! I'm 5"4... How talk are you? Congratulations!!! I hope to do as well as you!!

CONGRATS!!!! I hit 100lbs about 2 weeks ago! I started at 288 but was 277 the day I was sleeved!

Maybe 277 is lucky lol

Keep up the great work!! I hate running but I started kickboxing and I am about to start crossfit. Here is something crazy you need to do if you haven't already....in the gym, go pick up a 50lb dumbbell in each hand. You are now holding what you lost, and it feels so much heavier than it ever did on your body, but that is what we were carrying around! I can only imagine that all my bones and joints are cheering in relief

congrats again, such an accomplishment. What size clothes were you then/are you now? I have gone from 22 to a 10, although yesterday I tried on a skirt in a size 8...and it FIT!

Congrats on your achievement!! I am 100 lbs overweight and I often think how much easier walking up the stairs would be if I wasn't packing an extra 100 lbs. I'm sure you feel awesome!!

It's weird the way I look at myself now I still take pics of myself and send them to my friend to see if a outfit I want to buy looks ok. I see a smaller but still see a heavy me. I just went to a wedding and felt great! I wore a dress I never thought I would ever be able to wear and got many compliments but I was still self conscious about my stomach and arms. Tummy Tuck arm reduction and boob job in my future here!! Another 40 lbs and I will start with that. Here is the wedding pic. I don't have many pics of my whole body because I'm still that person that stands behind everyone in the pic.

I hear you...I am waiting till I lose the last 30 and then I will be looking into consultations myself. Luckily my Dr is pretty sure he will able to get insurance to pay to remove excess skin on my thighs b.c i already had a skin condition that warranted it. Now it will just be easier for them. I am definitely with you on the boob job and arm reduction/tummy tuck. My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy but it's like I've gotten this far I want to go all the way. I know it seems silly but I want to wear a bikini just once in my life!!!! I'm going to start calling the Dr each time my belly button gets irritated b/c of the lack of air due to the saggy skin. LOL get it on record and insurance may have to pay! Good luck!
