You would think after losing 127 lbs and having my sleeve for 14 months I would get used to the side by side but I still don't recognize myself.

When I made the decision to have weightloss surgery it wasn't just to lose weight. I also wanted to gain back who I lost in those 246. part of that was letting go of the food and constantly remind myself I am way more worthy than a cheeseburger or chocolate shake. I deserve to enjoy what I want in moderation. I lost really fast and had most of my weight gone by 8 or 9 months. Again, I stopped focusing on food. I keep myself accountable and the second I feel out of control I confide in someone. I know that sounds weird but it's my way of reminding myself that I will NOT hide and eat after everyone goes to bed. Hope that helps. :)

I hate this question mostly because I should have done things different but with a full time career, 5 children and no energy due to low caloric intake I never have exercised through this process. I do have a ton of skin but not sure exercising would have made that big of a difference. I have no regrets and I think If it's successful you're doing it the right way.

happy for you! You look gooooood! :D

you go girlfriend! good work!

I keep going back to this pic. You truly are an inspiration. ((((applause))))

I was educating my best friend about the surgery, showing her this site. She wanted to look at before and after pics. Yours is one of the best. You looked lovely, and very happy in your before picture, but you are radiant in your after pic. It is very inspirational for those of us heading into this.
