Creating a new thread because the other one has gotten really long.

So, here are my before and currents to keep the topic moving.

Current as of last week:

Before after 2yrs out next month no gain started 299 at my lowest every 158 5'8

You look amazing. I have reached a plateau but you give me hope that I will get there. I am 16lbs from my goal and will be a year out on 3/28/2015 i hope to get there soon. you give me hope.

I love looking at everyone's before and after pics, it's amazing how much more confident and how bright smiles are in the after pics! Makes me so excited to start my journey!!!

How did you belly do after weight loss? Skin shrink up nice? You look great!

I'm 19 yrs old and have been considering surgery since I was about 17 since I've dealt with obesity my whole life.

My surgery was Nov 18, 2014. I started at 298 and am now at 254! Only 7 weeks out of surgery but have seen a huge difference in how I look!

It's so funny that I look in the mirror every day and always tell myself that I don't see any changes and feel upset and then I actually look at the pics I took right before surgery and how much I've changed. Literally puts me in tears!

Of course I'm still in progress, my goal is to be about 120, I'm hoping that happens! I'm really short, 5'1 so technically that's pushing almost still being overweight lol.

I can't wait to be a year out and look as great as all of you guys! Everyone here is such an inspiration ????

Wow what a good job!!

Wow what a good job!!

Thank you so much!! ????????????

I <3 my sleeve

X57114....you look awesome!

You all look amazing. I am fast approaching getting my surgery date and it's becoming more real. I'm getting really nervous because I've been reading stories of people regretting their sleeve. Will I really miss not being able to eat as much on occasion? How badly is my hair going to fall out? Will I really be able to enjoy the foods I like again, eventually? These are all questions I'm asking myself lately.
