-200 lbs lost!

  • Popular Post

As of this morning I am down -200 pounds since my sleeve surgery on November 9, 2016.

That's a little shy of 15 months. Starting at 470 lbs I am 270 pounds right now and would like to lose 30 more.

If anyone is on the fence about getting this surgery done, please just do it.

It's been a pretty easy road for me and I'm grateful about that.

Here's to the next 30 and goal weight!!!!!

    It was some spots at first but it wasn't bad at all. I kept Water with me all the time and constantly sipped. The worst part for me is remembering to eat. I'm not hungry at all.

    Congratulations! Keep going until you reach your goal. Everyone told me that starting at nearly 400 pounds, I couldn't go below 200. I am at 173 now, and am completely thrilled with my progress. Anything is possible if you make good decisions!

    Take care and best wishes.
