I had my surgery on June 7,2016 day of surgery weight was 235 starting weight was 252, today I'm at 196 and went from a size 20 to a size 13 !! I'm so excited , I have a lot more energy now, I haven't been in this size since I was 18. I still have ways to go to get to my goal weight, but I'm happy with how far I have come. It's been tough, but worth it.post-292516-14720624221408_thumb.jpg post-292516-14720625004647_thumb.jpg

I haven't been 196 since I was 18, too! And at age 17, I was only 145. Hard to believe I was 115 at age 14! Oral steroids are evil, lol! Congratulations! You look amazing!

I'm super happy for u. I'm having a hard time with not being jealous and sad that I was done on June 21st and I've been stuck at 32 lbs for three weeks. Feeling so discouraged

I noticed you have tattoos on your arms. I also have 2 very special tattoos on my upper arms. Right side upper arm a flying pig for my dad that passed from cancer 3 years ago and on the left a half upper sleeve of a Horned Owl with teal ribbon for my mother in law that just passed from ovarian cancer this last May. I was wondering if your tattoos are changing any? Stretching out etc.

You look amazing and make me feel excited about maybe having WLS

Thank you, don't get discouraged. Everyone is different, look at your calorie intake if your not taking in enough calories your body stops burning fat, make sure your taking in your Protein and walking! You got this, you can do it! @@trae33

@@kimberb , thank you ! I haven't seen anything happen to my tattoos as far as stretching or anything like that. As for the surgery it's been a challenge but well worth it! This is by far one of the hardest journeys I have taken. Good luck! You can do it!

I had to follow a 6 week diet plan set by my surgeon. First week was liquid, followed by two weeks Puree, two weeks semi solid then regular consistency foods.. No eggs till after eight weeks. But lots of Protein, Beans and spinach lol chicken breast and I love eggplant I use it when I want Pasta or pizza I just use that instead, as the crust or the Pasta substitute. Love bananas with lactate milk became lactose intolerant... Or Peanut Butter and banana.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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...
