It just dawned on me that yesterday was one year since my VSG. Here are a couple of progress pics and screenshots of my smart BMI charts.

As of this morning, I've lost 112.4lbs. At 5'8", my measurements are 39"-28"-39". I'm not sure what they were at my heaviest of 170lbs. When clothes shopping, I reach for a size 6, but of course every store/brand is different.

Without doubt, I am thrilled with my progress. Still a few pounds away from my goal.

I have never been normal weight as an adult and I must admit that my self-image is quite skewed. The numbers don't match what I perceive in the mirror. It's definitely weird.

I love to run and move now. It feels amazing and freeing. My body can do things that I've haven't experienced in decades.

This surgery was worth every hard-earned cent it cost me. I am grateful every day for my good fortune. Thank you to everyone here at BP for allowing me to vent and hopefully help others in turn.

Whoa Nelly! Congrats! That's fantastic doll. Thanks for the inspiration!!!

(I'm sorry they decapitated you during surgery. )
