Going on 15 months post op



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

I haven't been on here for awhile! I hope everyone finds this website as usfl as I did and still do!

its been almost 15 months since my Surgery. My starting weight was 465 lbs :o and as of this morning I am down to 222lbs exactly

that's a 243 weight loss total. I hit a stall for Weeks!! so I started walking more and added more food to my diet (healthy food of course)

once I started that the weight started coming off again (PHHHEW) I am 42 lbs away from my original goal weight and let me tell you.. THIS FEELS AMAZING!!!! my life has completely changed for the better.. im more active and im living the life I always wanted for me and my daughter :)

if anyone is deciding to get this surgery I will always tell you GO FOR IT!!!

I had fears but the happiness of feeling free and "normal" outweighs that fear I had before deciding to have this surgery.

it literally saved my life! good luck to those who are starting their journey and keep it up!

I will always say this; This was the best decision I ever made and I do not regret anything!!!!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
