Exactly a year ago I had the sleeve done, and today marks my 45 kg total loss.
I never thought i would ever come close to the number i now see when i stand on the scale "59 kg" last time i was that weight i was in elementary school!
The surgery was the best decision i have made in my life, people always told me weight doesnt matter thin or fat big or small it wont change who you are. Well it did, first with my confidence. I learned to embrace how i look now, i became more comfortable in my skin which is something i failed to do in past years.
I don't try as hard as i used to to fit in, i don't seek peoples acceptance of me. And on a physical health level, i don't take half of the medicine i used to take when i was obese, i can be more active i have so much energy to anything i put my mind to.
Even if i don't look the way i imagined myself to. I still love where i am and how far i came.
My stomach doesn't look perfect, but im so grateful for it.
My arms flap, but its only a small price to pay for your mental and physical health.
If you're struggling in anyway or if you're second thinking the surgery, just know that you're the one that can make it work. Set your eyes on the end goal and you will defiantly get there.
Its not easy, at all! It takes commitment and patience.
The road can be long and hard, but in the end it will all be worth it all!
This is how I am feeling after losing 100+ lbs and i hope you all have a successful weight loss journey!
