I can't believe it guys! I really can't! I am seriously crying tears of joy.

When I started this process I was 540 pounds (I'm 5'10) and I wore a size 36/38.

As a lot of you know I had my panniculectomy on June 5th and they removed 15 pounds of skin.

Before my panniculectomy I wore a size 22 bottom and 14/16-18/20 top. I had bought smaller sized pants before my surgery because most of my pants were held up by my extra skin flap.

Guys...I fit into a size EIGHTEEN!!! And I look super good!! I'm attaching some before and after pictures for you guys to enjoy!

I can't believe this is real life!

My stomach is flat!!

(Please excuse my one drain in my one picture!)

congrats so happy for you
