Thanks @@sugabear44 at the beginning of my 3 month pre-op diet I was 293. Day of surgery I was 273..... I lost 30 in my first 30 days.

125 pounds lost

Absolutely beautiful!! May I ask what are your stats? How long did it take you?

Thank you. I started at 267, I am now 142 ish. From a size 22 jeans to a 6/8 jeans, my tops were 2xl, and I am now a size small top sometimes extra small tops, I still can't believe it. I had my surgery on May 31, 2013. It took my 10 months to lose all my weight. I had 800 calories, and worked out/ walked 5 times a week. Didn't cheat, and eat extremely well. I hope that helps. If you have anymore questions please let me know.

Thank you for responding. Sorry been off for a few days. I'm so impressed with your stats and what a beautiful transformation. Congratulations. I hope to be there soon. 10 weeks out so far.

Shannalyne, you look great. What a transformation!

That is incredible LilMissDiva!! This is such a motivator.. Did you have to do a Tummy Tuck and all?? I'm quite scared to have to end up needing that. Even the thought of it scares me.
