Here is a pic from March 2015 and feb 2016:

Hi Everyone,

Time to post my before and after pics.... making me accountable to the "Surgery Day" group! Haa haaa... I had the gastric sleeve surgery completed on January 6, 2016. I am currently down 25 pounds and boy can I tell you that I can feel a difference in my energy level. I can also fit other tops that I haven't fit for months and months. I am enjoying this new journey and looking forward to more weight loss as each day goes by.

Weird things you notice. So down 52lbs. Bout 20 more to go I think. And some things I've noticed...

I can cross my legs like a normal person

I can wear heels all day

I finally weigh less than my dad and my boyfriend

In this photo my ass/hips don't take up the whole chair. I didn't have to suck in. I look like an almost normal sized person. Almost not fat at all!

I'm excited to keep losing. See what it's like to feel small. Regular. Normal.

Hi everyone. Im back to work. Im having a hard time eating today. My stomach feels full and Im not really hungry. Any ideas for me to get past this?

This chat has been the greatest! Super encouraging to me and really helped me see what life will be like after the sleeve.

Hi everyone... looks like Im starting to drop weight again from my stall. However, Im back at work and the last few days been really tired and not wanting to eat much. Did this happen to any one of you?

this video is SUPER handy.

Also I got some great tips - gonna get 4oz tupperwares for my meals and do layering of flavors like she did. I think my first "real food" day will be something like this:

Breakfast - egg white scramble with salsa and sour cream and little cheese - MAYBE a few potatoes or 1/2 whole wheat toast.

snack - shrimp with cocktail suace

lunch - corn tortilla, shredded chicken, cheese, Beans, salsa, sour cream MAYBE avocado

snack - cold cut roll up - turkey, 1/2 cheese stick, miracle whip and mustard

dinner - shrimp, cauliflower rice, peppers, low sodium soy sauce, butter

all these consist of four ounces. If i need more Protein i'll drink a shake.

That is such a great idea. I definitely need to purchase those containers.

What video

That moment when you've lost almost 60 pounds but then you see yourself on video and feel like "you still fat " [emoji58][emoji58]

What video

I'm a corporate trainer so I was video taping one of my compliance classes. [emoji852]

@pr_pitbullgrl.... I still feel fat. I have a long way to go. Everyday is goals amd everyday eating is different. Seems like my liquids are going down better than food right now. My new stomach doesnt like a lot of food in it. Im about an oz to 2 oz of food. I feel like theres a lot of air too. Everyday is a learning curve
