1 year post-op today down 125lbs

[Rovobay 920]

Wow, time flies when you are kicking butt. I am happy and down 125 pounds from my high weight. I am a few pounds from my self made goal and the scale has slowed to a crawl. I am okay with that. I have done things I wouldn't have ever dreamed of in this past year. I am physically active, have stopped abusing alcohol, eat much better, and feel amazing. Oddly enough my brain can not catch up with the size of my body. I still see that same big boy. I KNOW how much I have lost, but my brain hasn't fully adapted to my new body. weird weird weird. I can't wait to see what my 1 year follow up will be like as I prepare for maintenance mode.

Thank you to all of you on this site as this site was a huge factor in my success.

Pictures will follow in a different thread.

Yay!! I too am one year out today. Down 110 lbs. I would like to lose 20 more but that is also a self-made goal. I've gone from a 2XL to a M. I don't snore, was able to get off anxiety meds, have energy and hope, and physically I have not felt this good in decades. My life is back. I am so grateful to my surgeon and his team and for the support of people here. God bless.
