11 months post op - WOW!



Recommended Posts

I haven't posted much but had my daughter take pics and WOW is all I can say!

At my top weight I was 210.....at 5'2" that is a lot. I got down to 196 on surgery day - 6/16/14. I had a pretty rough 6 weeks right after surgery but once I got on the proper medication the journey got pretty easy.

Now 11 months post op and down to 129 it has been an awesome adventure. So pleased I had the sleeve done.

I also show horses (and have for years), after I had lost about 75 pounds I was at a show, the judge was someone I showed with, she didn't recognize me and asked my trainer who that was riding my horse! Too funny.

Congrats! You look awesome and should be proud of your accomplishment! ❤ I'm at goal too and I'm learning that most people don't recognize me vs. are ignoring me! It's a weird concept to grasp. I don't think I look different but then when I look at before/after pics - wow!

Sooo close to my goal...........but if my body is happy at this weight - I will be ok with that!

I will be 60 this year and wish I would have done the surgery years ago.

Wow. That's amazing progress. I started at 192 and I'm 5'0. I sure hope I get there when I'm at 11 months. Congratulations on your great success!

      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! 😞
