Just weighed myself!

[MariaElena1983 17]

I am just about 2 weeks post op. When I started my journey about 8 months ago I weighed 310lbs. I lost 10lbs before surgery. I am now down to 275lbs! I have lost a total of 35 pounds so far. I'm so proud of myself. I already have so much more energy and feel better.

Congratulations! Sounds like you are doing great.

Isn't it a great motivator to see progress happening?! Congratulations you are well on your way. I was the same weight as you when I started, of course it does start to come off a bit slower after that first initial month but seeing progress every week toward my goal keeps me motivated. For me it was about getting healthy at first and in just 5 short months all my co morbidities are gone and kidney function is normal. I was stage 3 kidney disease when I began the process and headed for a very bad place.

Now everything is normal!

Of course now I love the fact that I can shop at almost very store! I bought my first pair of Lucky jeans this week in a size 14! I always wanted a pair of Lucky jeans! I was wearing 24/26 when I started this! I still have 65lbs to go. I cannot even think about what that would mean for me in sizes!

You keep pushing forward, it is a very exciting time for us! Good luck and keep us posted!
