Hello all!

I am 5 months out and a 100lbs down. I am honestly so grateful that I got the opportunity to have this operation done. I don’t miss my old life style at all, I now love the gym, I love my lean protein and veggie meals, I love being able to shop anywhere without worrying about if they’ll carry my size, I love not worrying about taking up too much space on public transport, I love running about everywhere and not feeling the excess weight on my knees and feet.

Have I had bad days?? Of course! One day I ate an entire block of brie, another day I ate a slice of pizza. But the difference is now I don’t let my mistakes define. One bad meal isn’t going to get me back where I started. One bad meal isn’t the end of my journey. I accept it, and move on. Maybe i’ll move around even more the next day.

I have another 30lbs to go until I hit my goal weight, I will never ever ever be skinny, because i’m naturally curvy and you know what? That’s ok. I own these curves and i’m healthy and curvy!

Deargh... 100 lbs in 5 months! Dang. Girl. I am beyond impressed. And admittedly, a little jealous! You keep going girl! You got this!!!

We are proud of you Deargh, but even more important, you have earned the right to be very proud yourself.??

You look great I'm very anxious at the moment I can't decide which surgery to have I want sleeve but I worry I've heard gerd can be awful and I hope to maintain but worry I will put back on down the line ,also I'm type 2 deibetic so bypass is recommended but that scares me more with changing how my body works inside the dumping malnutrition bowl blockage etc my pre op is April need to decide soon ?
