4 Years Post-Op



Recommended Posts

Good Day fellow members.

I'm from Windsor' date=' Canada. I started my journey at 350lbs. I am almost 4 years post-op and RNY has been the best decision of my life.

FaceBook: Santino Pirrone

Check out my YouTube video here:

Wow!! You look amazing and I'm sure you feel it too!!! Congrats to you! Your video made me kick myself again for not keeping up with good progress pics as I go through this journey. I'm 5 1/2 months post-op and have lost 130 lbs....have about 60 left to get to goal weight. I've only really took weekly pics for the first few weeks :-( Congrats again!!

I started at 348....down to 216 now. I've eaten what I'm supposed to.....drank lots of fluids and exercised a lot. Just followed all the rules ALMOST all the time.

Thats the key... excercise. For some reason, when you excercise at 350 pounds, it does nothing but if you excercise at 200 pounds you actually see a difference. You can actually see the scale move and that motivates you to keep at it.

You will. Just remember to stay focused. Eventually you will re-teach yourself the proper way to eat and you will end up living a long and healthier life.

Best of luck

Wow you look fantastic!! What an inspiration you are to us all :D Did you start off exercising pretty soon after your surgery? I am pre-op and I have such a hard time motivating myself to exercise now.

      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!!
