Figured I'd give myself a little bit of an update.

NSV: pair of shorts are falling off of me!

As I go ahead moving on this journey, I do not know if I want my goal weight to be 150. I will see how my body goes and find a weight that I will be comfortable with.

Going back to work is really hard, I've been having intense stomach pains that only happen there. It might be from the anxiety I feel about my job in general.

I had no coverage and paid out of pocket; therefore I didn't have to jump through hoops and do ANOTHER pre-surgery diet. I'm down roughly 20 pounds since surgery 6/8. I had my first comment from an acquaintance that I looked thinner ????. Are you eating purée? Regular foods? I am looking for a new Vitamin too.

That's absolutely wonderful! I am eating puree at the moment and I absolutely hate it! The texture is so off putting. Tuesday will be my last puree day.

It's been awhile since I did an update! I had a stall for about 3 weeks that had me freaked out. Things have been going well, work is still keeping me permanently exhausted.

Getting ready to go to a wedding in October and it's nerve wracking because I need to find a nice dress since I'm a bridesmaid.

I've lost a total of 60 pounds and I'm super proud. I'm starting to be able to fit into clothes I had a few years ago and cleaning out my closet. I'm also able to put on some rings that did not fit for the longest time.

Some other things I've noticed is I feel more comfortable laying down than I have in a long time. A lot of people I work with say I look great.

Oh man! I've been super neglecting of this place here! Since the start of October I've been on forced over time for work requiring between 10-15 more hours per week. Due to this it's been very stressful and I end up working 12 hour shifts.

Still weight is going in the right direction and I am proud!

I am .3 pound away from losing a total of 80 pounds which is excellent!

Good luck everyone :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
