Progress pic 2 and a half months out. 35 lbs down. i've dropped 2 pant sizes and even though I have a ways to go...The girl in the pic before surgery was sad, embarrassed, insecure...but now my confidence is climbing up again and I'm learning to love myself as I'm losing the weight. I've found that I'm not hiding. I put effort into how I present myself because I'm not worried about having to shop now. I'm so happy with my progress and how I'm practicing self love instead of self sabotage. This was yesterday and I was really feelin myself before I left for work. When you feel good about yourself, and love yourself, you have this light that shines and man people have been noticing the difference too. Hope you're all doing well on your journeys!

You are really looking great. Keep up the good work as you are doing an awesome job.

I think I am still scared to take pictures of myself as the reflection in the mirror is still the same to me. I'll post someday.

Wow! You look great! Our starting weights are very close so it's quite inspirational to see such a dramatic difference in a couple months...

Hi there, thank you so much.

I don't have any issues with loose skin yet. I don't workout right now. My plan is to lose the weight first and then tone. I think that I would get discouraged if I started to gain muscle and it added weight to the scale...idk that might be stupid but I'm waiting til I drop a substantial amount of weight before I start toning up.

I see small differences but I'm learning to love myself as my body is morphing into what it's looking like. When I was this weight maybe a year ago, I HATED myself, and now...i'm like oh hey look at you, putting effort into the way I dress and feel. I have never been this confident at this weight ever in my life and I'm like, OK you are rocking 192 lol. It's just different this time around.

I do regret really not taking any before photos right before surgery though. This before photo was a picture that was taken of me that I was soooo embarrassed of, so I'm using this as a before photo. lol

      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?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
