So I started my journey on October 30th 2015 at 540 pounds. This is the highest I've ever been. I had to be on oxygen because I was so overweight it was pressing against my lungs.

I had to do 6 months of a supervised diet and lost 60 pounds before my surgery and had my surgery weighing 480 pounds.

I had a horrible time after surgery as some on here may remember. I was in extreme pain for 3 weeks then extreme nausea for 5 months. The nausea was so bad I didn't eat or drink for over a month and had to get a picc line and give myself infusions overnight to get my fluids and nutrients.

They removed my gallbladder in October of this year and I started to feel much better.

I now feel great and am finally starting to be able to enjoy my smaller size! I'm having fun working out at the gym and I'm starting to feel pretty and trying to date.

I now weigh 336 pounds! That's 204 pounds down from my first weigh in and 144 pounds down since my surgery May 29th 2015!

I'm so excited to be going in the right direction! I just turned 30 in November and I can't wait to finally start living my life!

Here are some before and after pictures!

Dash....me too. I get on the scale and automatically say 306. I still dont trust that I was ever in the 'onederland'...I was! I have witnesses to it. I want to believe I will get back to the ones and I did this novembe r during my trip to israel. I hope to get back to the ones end of this month when I visit in fla. But it never stays there. Invariably I get a cold or something requiring prednisone and I go haywire.

Hard to accept this as the status quo but better than 3xx or 4xx

Seriously amazing job! I'm only 3 months out and a pretty slow user with nagging infections, anemia, and an ankle injury slowing me down even more. The scale doesn't move and I start freaking out that I've blown the magic honeymoon and omg, this isn't really going to work, and ugh it's just like all the other things that didn't work...

Hearing you've not only done so well, but are continuing to do so well so far in is really encouraging . Especially after such a rough start.

Amazing job and you're really looking great!
