Really. Really? It blows my mind.



Recommended Posts

Browsing through some pictures at work a short time ago, I came across one of myself taken during a lunch party of sorts. It's quite possibly the worst picture of me ever taken, and I was mortified to see it! (and tempted to remove it from the company image servers, but I digress). It was taken sometime last year in late spring or early summer. I have no idea what my weight was.

Fast forward to a picture taken this past Wednesday when I played hooky to go cod fishing.

Really? Really? I didn't think I've changed that much because I still have quite a ways to go, but... really? It blows my mind.

Be well…

Amazing transformation! Congratulations. It's wonderful to see before and after pictures. I can't wait to have some of my own. Thank you!

Awesome job. It is mind blowing seeing ourselves in pics. And being able to see the difference but can't in the mirror.

My friend sent me a picture of me last summer sitting by the campfire and I almost died!!! I couldn't believe I looked like that ! So happy with my sleeve and everything that I've been through in the last 8 months. Congrats to you on your transformation. It's so rewarding

Yep, you can tell the difference. Great job! This is such a fun time, and it's really motivating because it's a steady and rapid transformation. Enjoy it!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
