4 Months 9 days Post Op Side by Side

I am not one to go on Social media and post these type of pictures, as I hate calling attention to myself and I cant stand looking at my pre op self.

With that said I figured this was the best place to do it since we are all on similar paths and it might motivate someone who is on the fence about this decision... It is not easy changing the way you eat or live but dammit its worth it, this process is hard and slow but happens at a blink of an eye keep grinding away and those small victories will add up to your end goal...

Hi Kathy, Thank you

I have lost another 15lbs since this picture was taken and 2 pant sizes 42/38, its been slow as I have been a little lazy with the gym and diet due to work schedule being so busy and a few too many weekends enjoying myself (weekend Bachelor party cruise, Birthdays and Football Beer time).

Actually today is my Day 1 reset if you will lol started a fast last night and planning on cleaning out my system over the next few days (No sugars, Starches) to restart my program. My birthday is coming up in a few weeks and my goal is to be down another 15-20lbs by then.

I appreciate you bumping this thread it came at the right time for me as I was indulging too much I am sure we all get there at some point, Just have to play the long game and refocus.

Hope all is well.
