September and Now. Still a way to go, but getting there!

OMG Rence that is amazing!!! You look like you could be your own brother or even son!! Awesome transformation.

@@toohot74akaelh2 The weight came off quickly but honestly very gradually- I would have weeks where I would lose nothing then randomly lose 6lbs but most of the time it was 2-3lbs weekly which is about what you're supposed to lose anyway regularly. I do work out a lot now (I didn't work out a lot during the losing phase though). I have sooo much energy to burn. I have an update pic I took with my doc on 5/5/15. He was amazed. He's so awesome. The before pic was day 2 postop on 10/9/13.

Oh you all look fabulous and thanks all for sharing your amazing stories. I'm only 1week post op and have lost 18 lbs from pre op diet to date. My starting weight was 263 and my current is 244. Did anyone here have a little secret for preventing or minimizing loose skin?? My goal is to loose 85 lbs. thanks
