120 pounds lost and 7 months out PIX

Hi guys, as of yesterday i am 7 months out and have lost 121 lbs. I just entered ONEDERLAND which I have not seen in YEARS!! I weigh less than I did in high school. I walked my first 5k yesterday which was a breeze. I feel amazing and couldn't be happier with my decision to have this surgery. I'd love to lose another 30 but feel great even where I am at right now so whenever my body wants to stop losing is fine with me.

HW: 320

CW: 199

GW: 170

    No I don't go to the gym. I walk a lot that's about it. Gonna start doing something soon though because I've got to start toning. I've got a lot of flab still. Thank you and best of luck to you. My

You look great! You and I are the same height and your pre op weight is close to me now (I'm still 11 days pre-op), so I hope I can get similar results!

You look great! Great job!

Way to go!! I'm almost 6 months out, 127 lbs. down (since I started my pre-op diet almost a year ago), and ONE LB. away from "Onederland!" I can't wait to get there!!!!

Congratulations! You look great!

Congrats on your great success! You really do look amazing!!!! I'm 1 month out n have been reading about hair loss. Did you experience anything n if so what did you do for it, cause you look great and your hair looks really really good n healthy

Actually I've lost a lot of hair. In the before pix I have long, thick hair and the most recent pix I have short hair because I've lost so much! And it's still coming out. Not to discourage you of course. The hair loss is not upsetting me though because I'd rather be bald than still be 320 lbs. Hair grows back :)

Best of luck

My doc says you can take vitamins but nothing will essentially keep it from falling out. If anything they will help it grow back. My hair, at 8 months out now, is just not starting to grow back as I am noticing a lot of the fuzz on my hair line sticking up. Also I'm not noticing as much coming out in the shower.

Good luck!

adding 10,000 of Biotin daily will help! I am 5 months out an no hair loss from this surgery.

Wow this is so motivating. My body type is a lot like your before weight. I get sleeved the end of the month. And your outfit is so cute. I totally went window shopping today for the Onederland
