11 Months Out - Pics!

  • Popular Post

Hey All -

I am excited to be 11 months out of surgery and down 107 pounds and feeling fantastic. I just wanted to post a positive post-op post because I know when I was researching having this procedure, I always wanted to read about good things so thought I'd share the same.

Basically, I've lost 107 pounds, went from a size 22 to a 10, a XXL to a M and my entire life has changed. I eat so clean now, spend most of my weekends hiking or being outdoors (something I was never into before). This has been life changing for me and for my husband, who has also gotten extremely healthy in the process.

My confidence has skyrocketed, my professional life is better, my only regret is that I didn't do this 5 years ago. Hope all my fellow post-op sleepers are doing well and hope this helps inspire anyone who is interested in the procedure.

You look absolutely amazing! Such an inspiration are you able to pretty much eat any foods again??

Thank you! I do eat pretty much whatever but I really don't eat bread or pasta at all because it makes me too full with not enough I'm getting out of it. I eat primarily paleo and gluten free and still super small portions. :)

Hello! Can you please share your tips for losing a lot? I had the sleeve you look beautiful! Thank you!

Awesome! :)
