100 lbs gone in less than 6 months! Below goal weight!

Hi Everyone!

It's been awhile since I posted. Living life happily as the skinny me. I've officially lost now 100lbs since my surgery on Feb 19. It's been less than 6 months. Just want to give some inspiration.

Height: 5'4"

Start weight: 230

Current weight: 130

(In high school I was 140!)

Shirt size: XXL

Current: S/M

Pant size: 16/18, XL (stretch or yoga pants)

Current: 7, S (stretch or yoga pants)

Bra size: 40DD

Current: 36 C

I'm very fortunate to not have a lot of loose skin. My stomach is the worse area but I keep that covered. I've had 4 kids so I don't expect that to be great. :)

My current pics aren't that good because my new house doesn't have a full length mirror and I was standing on my tip toes to try to get a pic. :)

It's crazy to be "skinny" now. I've looked in the mirror several times and still can't believe it's me. My husbands family didn't even realize it was me at a party this past weekend. I have pretty much 0 clothes that fit me because everything is too big , which is not a bad problem to have. I have so much more confidence now and I'm a lot happier now. :)

Wow! Your story is so encouraging and inspiring. I am having my procedure on August 22 and am really going through a lot of anxiety. Good for me to hear success on the other side.

I had my procedure VGS 10 months ago and I reached my goal weight last week. So many things unhappy things have happened in the last two and a half months that I really was not motivated to lose the weight. I know that it was the procedure that worked it own magic. Congratulations on your weight loss. Keep up the good work.
