Best decision of my life! Yesterday was my 9 month post op check in with the surgeons office. Everything is looking great and I have lost 132 pounds since surgery! My bmi is almost to being out of the obese range and I am about 45 pounds from my personal goal weight.

My heaviest weight in 2011 was 376

My surgery weight in September 2015 was 319

My current weight is 187!!!!

First picture is almost at my heaviest, then purple shirt is 11 days before surgery and black & white top is last week.

You are a great inspiration for many people. Remember, lots of people look without posting so they are seeing what is truly possible! WLS works!

Congratulations... Keep working the program!!

Awww, thank you so much for the kind words. I know seeing others post on their success helps me as well. [emoji4]

I have been doing the treadmill and I have some hand weights that I do a routine with in my living room on alternating days. I have also been taking the stairs at work and things like just parking further from the door wherever I go. I honestly haven't been like killing myself with exercise but have been doing 45 minutes to an hour of some type of movement about 5-6 days a week.

Thanks! That gives me a lot of hope. I have been increasing my walking already and will try to incorporate some type of workout at home. Just wanted to see if it was more beneficial to join a gym, which I really didn't want to have to do.

I actually cancelled my gym membership after having surgery because I was doing more at home then taking time to go to the gym anyway. I also found an app called sworkit where you can set up workouts based on if you want yoga, cardio etc and how long you have to exercise, it's pretty neat.
