lost 51 lbs in 4.5 months



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on April 10 with Dr Aceves in Mexicali. This is the best thing I have ever done in my life and wish I had done this a long time ago. I started at 189 day of surgery and now weigh 138. My goal weight is to be 120 by the end of the year. I really don't see that happening. My height is 5'1 so on the short side. I am wearing size small tops and size 4-6 in pants. Have been fat my whole life and the first time I can remember being this size. I have 3 sisters and all of them are skinny but I ended up getting the fat genes. Good luck to everyone.

Congrats! I am having surgery on Wednesday. I weigh 195 & have been wondering how long it would take to lose the weight. My goal weight is 135. Nice to see it took less than 6 months. My doctor said 1/2 in the first 3 months & the balance over 9 months.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
