I've lost 48.5 pounds so far, and I swear 30 of it was in my boobs. I've lost 6 inches there...but only 3 around my enourmous hips! I'm going to have to have liposuction and a boob job, I'm pretty sure. The sad thing is that it's getting harder to find clothes, not easier! My hips are a size 26, but my top is a 18/20. I'm ok with it, just think it's funny and just a little ironic.

Well, I'm starting to miss my boobs. I keep telling my DH that it will only cost $5000 to get new ones. :(

I love being able to tie my shoes and cut my toenails without trouble, too. And my hands don't feel pudgy anymore, they feel downright delicate.

But I'm afraid the wattle hanging from my chin is not at all what I had in mind. I suppose that's another $5000 to pull that up. It actually is a row of several wattles. My mom has one of those big ones with no neck, so at least I've always had a neck. Now there's just a lovely dangly to go with it! :)

Of course, the positive changes far outweigh (or should I say "underweigh" ) the negatives!

There are bones under there too and I can actually shave my legs or cut my toenails now without passing out cause my oxygen is cutoff. :) I can even look at the backs of my legs. I have scars back there I haven't seen since the 70's. lol.

Amazing what can keep me entertained.

ok, now this one made me laugh out loud..... thanks Leatha! I needed it!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
