6 months post op

Yesterday was my 6 months post op. I had the gastric sleeve on July 18 and have lost 72+ lbs already! (Only allowed to weigh myself 1x month per surgeon so last weigh in was December 5) I think I would have lost more had there not been a lot of medical issues going on with my boyfriend but I stayed on track and am so proud to be where I'm at already! I don't think of it as dieting anymore, it's my new lifestyle and I love it! I feel so much better and am so happy I made the choice to save my life and have this surgery! I can't wait to see what a year or more brings my way, I'm truly blessed and lucky!

Here's a picture of comparison from last year, August 2015 and yesterday , my 6 month post op!

For once I'm so proud of myself! As tough as it was, it was worth it and feels so good to be healthy!

That's awesome. I was sleeved on the same day as you. As of this past week I'm down 70 lbs exactly. Only a few more lbs to go to reach my personal goal. I've already surpassed my surgeons goal by 13 lbs. I can't wait to go back and see him again and show off what an amazing job he did to help me
