3 month Surgiversary ( with pics?)

I am so proud to say that I am now 3 months post op. I ventured into this foreign land called the gastric sleeve on Dec 5, 2016. I was nervous yet ready to have a new beginning in life. A healthier life that was more fulfilling without illnesses and aches all the time. Well, this 3 months has been a true roller coaster but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I started my journey out at 242 lbs pre- op. On the day of my surgery I was down to 219 lbs with the help of my dietician( I was very serious about my dietician's recommendations on diet changes ). When I awoke from surgery, I was so confused and in so much pain . I immediately regretted surgery,, lol. But after a couple of days I started to embrace my new lifestyle. I am 3 months out and today I am 176 lbs.....yayyy. Double screen pic was right after surgery and then 1 month after surgery and pics in white are most recent.

Awww, thanks so much. I am really so happy right now. The kind words are so wonderful. I didn't feel I looked all that great to be honest but I was just proud of what I had accomplished thus far.Some people have lost way more than me on their 3 month mark so I was a little unsure to post my results but I said what the heck and did it anyways. Glad I did. I am getting no support again from home ( if you follow me you already know the issue I had initially with my spouse and I thought he turned a new leaf but he told me the other day he hates that I ever had this surgery because I can't eat like I used to ... well ? duh, I don't wanna eat like I used to so it's back to me supporting me) it feels great to have people on my team rooting for my victory. Thank you all. I so appreciate it, I truly do.

You're absolutely beautiful!!! Such an inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing! In regards to your husband, don't let it get you down. He might just feeding from insecurities of losing you, maybe? Hope things get better at home.
