I'm far from goal weight but I was sleeved 7 weeks ago and my starting weight was 255. I'm now 212.

I'm so pleased with my progress this far and I can't wait for more weight to come off.

I walk every day and eat good quality ingredients. And always my Protein first.

Getting my sleeve was the best decision of my life.

You look amazing

Hey there, first of all, you look great. Another 10 kilos lost and you would probably look too skinny. First of, the before photo, you definitely don't look 132 kilos and now, you definitely look lighter than 75 kilos, chick. You look amazing, and of course, if your goal is 65 kilos, then I hope you get there, but hope you realise you look beautiful and fit. We have similar measurements , Im 27, and I was 130 kg on my surgery day and I'm 176 cm (5'9"). And almost 7 months since surgery and I weight at 92 kg. While my surgeon put my goal weight at 75 kg, I would love to get to 70. Of course, I would LOVE 65, but I think its a bit unrealistic, as I'm tall, and it probably wouldn't suit me. If I'll look as you do when I'll hit 75, I'll be the happiest, really. Much love, Marci

Hey Marci,

Thank you, those pics in red are from day before surgery at 123.5kg, not at my biggest 130. A 38kg loss and into double figures that's awesome progress congratulations!! Always exciting hitting under 100, I remember sitting at 102kg for so long all I wanted at that time was double figures :-) Lol Yes I'm happy with myself now however my surgeon has told me things will continue to change over the next twelve months with skin, shape and toning and I'm hoping to retain a fit and lean physique for life!

Hey again, hon

I knoooooow, right? I was sitting on the scale and when I've seen 101.. Then 100.4 ...and OMG, when I've seen 99.9 kg, I jumped with excitement, really. I felt like..ok, things got easier now that I'm under 100 hehe.

I'm sure you'll be able to keep yourself at your goal weight, when you'll get there and keep yourself into shape. While I'm looking forward to getting to goal, I'm not really looking forward to maintain my weight and my newly achieved leaner self, but hey, we gotta do it. All the best, chick.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!
