You can do it just focus on the end result getting there is the hardest thing but you can 100% do this. I'm in UK so can't help on the exercise front but an now a week out of surgery and have lost 2stone so far. Just keep pushing yourself and remember the end result is worth it.

Thank you so much! IT has been such a long journey for me so far. I'm excited that I am just over 1/2 through until my surgery date.

Her kidney abbr liver have shut down and trying to stabilize her. I am an emotional eater soit gas been super hard not to deal into old habits.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
