Still a long way to go before AFTER pictures for me, but this is DURING!

Here's me before & again at 4 months post-op, down 50 pounds.

Expect another set when (not if) I loose another 50!

Here are my "in progress" pics. I still have so much more to lose. Down 50 pounds since Jan 31st. Now I wish I would have smiled in my before pic..LOL!! And ok..I'll admit it!! That spot on my jeans is from the popcorn I had at the movies..I couldn't help it! :o I just didn't realize until after the pic was taken that it was still there. Woops!!

I haven't posted in a while but here is my most recent pic, and one I took before surgery. I started at 238, and a size 18. I now (depending on boob and butt size) go between an 6 and an 8, have run my first marathon and continue to love Protein Shakes as much as I did when I started. Cheers - Gyps

I know this is a before and after pic but I justwanted to post this as kinda a backwards B&A This was me when I was about 270 and my wife back in '03. I really want to get back down to this. I lost all my weight on Atkins and gained it all plus some in under 4 years.

I can see a little difference in my pics. I don't have one at my highest of 389lbs but I do have this one the night before the operation and a pic from the other day. I have lost a couple more since this already.

I figured it might be time to update this thread with some recent pix now that summer is here. These were taken on June 30th.

First 2 pics were taken two days after surgery and the last two were taken 6 months later (i.e. today). I'm down 55 lbs and have 45 more to go.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
