I am so thankful and blessed to have had the surgery. I wouldn't change it and couldn't be happier with my choice to get it. I have my times when eating is harder then normal but the outcome is worth it. I loved food before and now food isn't the same. But that's good for me because pretty sure I was becoming addicted to food. I want to lose another 40-50 lbs. For anyone needing reassurance, gastric bypass was the best for me.

thanks for sharing. Awesome success. I know it probably hasn't always been easy, but you feel it is way worth it and that encourages me a lot. Thank you.

Wishing you even more success on your journey

I am so happy for you!! I am a little over 3 months out (Surgery 8/13/12) and feel the same way.... I am about to make the 70 lb mark and be under 300 lbs! I only have 2 lbs to go!!!

So I share your excitement and I think this is the best thing that I could have done not only for me but my family as well!

Best wishes to you!!

Congrats on the weight loss. Thank you for sharing.

Wow I hope at 3 months I've lost that much. It seems to be going slower for me

You will loose it! I am 6 months out and lost 100 pounds so far, even while being pregnant. Its totally possible. Keep it up!

Today was my 3 month appointment and I'm 275

I'm 4 pounds for a 100 pounds lost since meeting with surgeon yay

I just don't know to describe the joy and jubilation I feel

I haven't been this size for 20 years ( I know I'm telling my age but that's ok)

Hoping to weigh 250 by my birthday January

Wish me luck

My weight loss has also been slow. Tomorrow is two months for me.

It's a struggle some days but you have to remember you didn't get over weight over night, so the weight can't come off over night!! Have faith and we can all do it!!

Im 3 days out and in so much pain ive been doing the whole "i really hope this is gonna be worth it" deal, its nice to hear that it will.
