Before and After pics with starting weight less 220?



Recommended Posts

I am schedule to have surgery Nov 18th, would love to see pictures of anyone who was starting weight in the lower 200's and your current weight now. Goal for me is 150 and wondering if anyone else has lost that much about 60-70lbs? How is your skin?

Surgery day I was 222. Today Im 145 and my skin is ok. My arms sag a little bit (I just dont wear sleeveless things too often), my butt sags a little bit but yoga helps that, my 'girls' sag a little bit because I lost a lot of mass (went from a 44D to a 38C) but fitting into size 8 skinny jeans and a medium top, being healthy, being able to zip knee high boots, being healthy, etc is worth every single sagging skin cell!!!

It started at 235 currently the weight is 152.

I'm 11 months out my thighs are a fright! :P

And yes I have flappy arms I'm also 47 so it might be better if you are you younger.

:) thanks, I never in a million years would of thought that I would be an inspiration to anyone...

It is truly moving (and I had to explain the tears in my eyes to my husband that just walked in)

You will do it too and in a short time. I bet someone will be saying the same thing to you!

On a side note? I just walked my son to school, a simple thing I know.. But a year ago it would of been painful (physically and emotionally)

Today it was a normal thing to do as a normal person. It's these moments that make it worth it :)

I'm 59 and my arms and girls sag already! I figure when I lose 90 lbs I'll be able to wrap up in my loose skin and keep warm next winter!

Yep, I feel if loose skin is my worst issue in life then I'm pretty fortunate.

      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?
