3mo post op- 100lbs down, 100 more to lose



Recommended Posts

Today is my 3 month post op anniversary and ive hit 100 pounds down fron the start of this WL journey. I am halfway there and am struggling with the idea that I'm able to lose more weight. 100 is a LOT to lose, but I have been at this weight before (5 years ago) and was never able to get lower. So I'm posting progress pics to remind myself 2 things. 1) I've come a long way and 2) im not who I was...I will go further

Top row - HW 328 on 02/09/17

Mid row - SW 271 on 05/24/04

Last row - CW 228

You are doing great girl!! I started my journey of massive weight loss for a third time when I had my RYN (first time lost 70lbs with WW, second lost 70lbs with lap band). Both previous times I managed to get to about 205ish, never under 200. Two points on this for you:
1. When I was near this weight before my goal was 180-185 and so 200 was never enough. I could not be happy there. Both times it was a struggle to even get that low. So this time I said I would be happy at 200 if that is where my body wants to be.
2. With This surgery everything has been so much easier. When I got to 205 I knew I'd surpass it and I did.
At 197 I decided to have a lower body lift (that was 9 days ago). They took off 15lbs!! I'm now 190 and expect to loss more due to swelling. I will hit my goal and this time have a massive inventive to keep it off!

Good luck to you on the rest of your journey! You go this!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
