So blessed!!!!

9 months out

Start weight 246

Today's weight 135

111 pounds gone FOREVER

NEVER looking back!!!! THIS is living!! We all deserve to feel this way!!!!

Thank you all so much. I'm just under 5 foot tall so according to my "ideal weight" I could still lose a little more but doc would like to see me gain a few lbs and then maintain. (Never thought I would hear that lol) I'm pretty happy where I am. My tummy is very flat but I also have extra skin so it's not very pretty. I feel amazing but still can't totally see it in the mirror. It's kinda crazy. I'm in a small top and size 5 bottoms yet I still find myself grabbing the 12 and 14's. I look at the 5's and think there is no way they'll fit me but they do. Shopping is fun again!! So blessed!!

God bless u!!! Ur an inspiration... I'm so glad u are sharing your journey

I dunno! I'm 4 days in and already craving anything that has any taste or texture... Not good... Please tell me that you ate relatively normally as soon as you were on normal food and didn't go crazy for 0% everything?! I need a light at the end of the tunnel that will tell me I can still have a small steak and a salad with balsamic dressing and still lose 100lbs!!! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

It's "head hungry" I went through that for the first 3 months. In fact, before I realized how much I could eat, I would vomit from over eating. It was awful. I still enjoy a steak. I usually can only have 4 or 5 pieces and can't have the garlic potatoes if I'm gonna eat that many. I can eat everything. Just in moderation. It does get better. I promise!! Hang in there!!!

U look incredible!!!!! I'm one month out... Did u ever loose your hair???

How's your skin after the transformation ??

I have lost A LOT of hair. Luckily I have a lot of it although its very thin. I have extra skin on my stomach and especially on my thighs since I was a TOTAL pear shape. I'll tell you! It's TOTALLY worth every skin wrinkle under the sun. thank you for the encouragement. All the best to you. You're moments from awesomeness.

I can't wait!!!! Did u keep up with ur Vitamins???

Thanks for sharing your experience you are a great fighter, and example for all of us!

You look amazing! So inspirational.

I'm probably not the best person to give advise. I Did follow everything for the first 2 weeks but as soon as I was released for full food I pretty much ate what I wanted, just in small portions. (Still do) if I want pizza, I eat pizza. I refuse to spend the rest of my life counting everything I eat. I want to LIVE! My blood has consistently been good. I take a multivitamin in the morning. I don't obsess about protein or anything for that matter. I can tell you that my hair thinned and I bruise easily which I know are in direct relation to nutrients but I feel amazing and couldn't be happier. My PC doc monitors me pretty close. I do get on the scale daily but to me it's accountability. I never want to look like that unhappy girl in the blue tank top. I remember that day (it was a year ago). It was nearly 100 degrees and I wouldn't put on a swim suit out of pure embarrassment. I always had a smile on the outside but felt shameful on the inside. I NEVER want to be that girl again. I would do this exactly the same way if I had to do it all again.
