11 month before and after pics!

[Shells83 48]

My before and "almost after"! Hoping to lose 15 more pounds and tone up, but I'm feeling pretty good. Just fit into my initial goal jeans!

It's been a rough year for me since my surgery on 7/2/18. I was rocking it with the exercise for the first several months. Then my company got bought, had a very stressful first project at work that lasted months, and my mom's terminal illness worsened and she passed. While sometimes I feel bad about myself for not losing as quickly as I'd hoped, I know I've done great. I'm certain that if I hadn't had the surgery before my life derailed this last 10 months, I'd be pushing 300 lbs and would have had an even harder time dealing with all the stress.

Looking forward to my one year follow-up appointment and going to try to rock it on exercise this next month. And stick with it more regularly. :)

I'm sorry for the loss of your mom. It certainly sounds like you've had a lot of challenges this past year. But you're tackling it! You look great! Be sure to congratulate yourself often on your perseverance and hard work. Way to go!

You look AMAZING! You are an inspiration to people like myself, who are just starting this journey. I know there will be some difficult days ahead but seeing your photos keep me encouraged [emoji6]
