I bought a bike! I went out for a ride, fell ass over tit and lol nearly killed myself (slight exaggeration) i got up, had grazed my elbow, went back home, cleaned and bandaged myself up and am super pumped to go out there again when the weather clears up. 6 months ago a bike was just something other people who were fit had, was not even a twinkle in my eye and now look at me????. Loving life to the max!!

I wore a XL Superman shirt today and my chest and arms filled the shirt more than my belly did! I did not look like a comic con nerd wearing it!

I was walking past our building door which is made out of mirror and didn't even recognize the person in the reflection was me. I finally saw what everyone is talking about how much weight I have lost. Wow scary but nice.

I am wondering if anyone drinks diet pop don't think we are allowed to but how can I stop helpppp!

How far out from surgery are you? I was a total Diet Coke addict before I started on the liquid diet. I tried it about two weeks after my surgery, and I hated it!! now I drink Water and herbal tea. The bubbles in soda are said to fill you up faster and, perhaps, stretch your new stomach. I'd rather lose weight than have a diet coke. ????

I went to the gym and wasn't ashamed to undress and redress in the locker room for the first time ever. Oh- and I can almost wrap the gym towel all around me:)

I have my moms wedding coming up next weekend in Florida. I realized all my summer clothes from last year don't fit anymore. I decided to do some shopping. Normally I'm sweating like an animal. This time I wasn't. It felt so good to be comfortable trying on clothes. To top it off my general doctor said I no longer need to take my medicine for high blood pressure and diabetes. :D

I fit in my 16 y/o son's size 36 pants! He wears 2 sizes bigger so he can wear shorts under them.

I posted before but I recently went for a surprise visit to see my family that lives four hours away. I didn't tell anyone I was coming. I hadn't seen my family since probably 3 or 4 months before my surgery and now I am about 3 months out and 63 pounds lighter. When I walked into my grandparents house my grandma almost fell over and my grandpa had started crying. Probably from the initial shock of my showing up but more so the fact that I looked so different. I was glowing and they couldn't stop looking at me and touching me to make sure I was real.

It was so overwhelming and it really really made me feel so proud of myself and my accomplishments!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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...
