Hi everyone, I am Andrew from South Africa, I had my surgery on the 9th of Feb and I am down 76kg (167lbs) since this whole journey started in November last year... This has changed my life so much, I have never been shy or an introvert, and have had alot of success in my life professionally and personally... But since the weight has come off, and still going... My feet have not yet touched the ground... This desicion was by far the greatest one I have made.. In 33 years of existence, I am truly alive now... I have been going through the stories and photos from you guys and girls... And you all look amazing.

Great results. Good Luck to you in the future

Congratulations on your success!

I'm at the beginning of my journey right now, so your post was very inspiring - thank you!! Best wishes as you continue your journey!

Wow I can't wait for me to feel good about myself

You should feel good about yourself now laneydasilva, I don't know your story, but if you are on this bariatric journey, you took a massive step already, and should absolutely feel fantastic about that.

What an inspiring testimony. I can't wait until it's my turn to utter the iconic "best decision ever" phrase. It's become the equivalent of a rite of passage.

I love your inspiring words! I'm early on in the process with about 4 months out.

Thank you soo much for encouraging word cunninl

hi there, are you two days until, or after your surgery?

So happy for you congratulations! I feel just like you. Best decision I've made for myself. My only regret is I hadn't done it sooner. Struggling to lose a pound,always in pain,high blood pressure,diabetes....gone! Keep up the good work.
