post-183130-0-07858700-1388536342_thumb.jpgHello All,

I have been following you all closing, but haven't posted much lately. I am now 10 weeks and a day post-op and down a total of 69.1 pounds. I have finally gotten around to posting my progress pictures.

Picture on the left is last Christmas 2012

Picture on the right is this Christmas 2013

I have actually lost 7 more pounds since the current picture was taken.

I can't wait to bring in the New Year with this New Body. Happy New Year Everyone!

(I hope I uploaded the picture correctly - fingers crossed)

Thank you all for the positive feedback and compliments. Let me see if I can answer your questions.

In all fairness, I have to say that about 10 years ago when I once was thin after having my daughter (it only took 10 years of trying to get the "baby" weight off) I had a Tummy Tuck and a breast lift.

With that said, my tummy tuck is bouncing back nicely and no loose skin yet. My stomach is very flat and tight. My breasts are hanging in there like real champs. Time will tell if I will perk them up again later.

The two areas that I can see might need some help are my upper arms and inner thighs. Right now they are not bad enough to do anything with, but I still have 59(?) pounds to go.

So far I have no really noticed any hair loss, but my hair is super-duper thick.

Again, thank you all for your kind support and taking time to check out my progress.

I know 2014 is gonna be awesome! Let the Parties begin (but be safe and no drinking and driving).

Bonnie

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
