I really MUST get someone to take a photo of me in a pair of my old jeans, its freaking hilarious. My 4 year old fits in them with me, with room to spare!

This is the hubby and I at my Aunt's lake house this past 4th of July. I am at my worst here. This is before my hubby started his new job and is required to loose weight and work out daily. He looks fantastic. I am miserable and can't wait to look as good.

I'm not where I want to be yet, but it's been 1 year, so I'm posting pics. I'm down 44 pounds from surgery date. Hopefully year 2 is even better!

Not sure if these will come out, and sorry if they are so big, I don't know how to make them smaller? I'm down 17 1/4 inches lost this month. I've lost a total of 41 pounds including my pre-op diet.

Just some updated pics of me at the gym this morning. For what its worth, I don't think that BMI is correct. I'm down to a 36" waist now and have 22" arms so I don't really consider that BMI number from TickerFactory to be accurate, but maybe someone knows more about it and can clue me in as to how those numbers are calculated.

Posting these pics is like therapy. Letting go of my "old" body is going to be harder than I thought. It's hard to believe that I am so much smaller...

Everyone looks amazing in this thread and it is so inspiring! I have always HATED cameras and did not take any true 'before' pictures. My friend encouraged me to take new pictures and dig up old pictures so I could SEE the difference and well I was kind of shocked once I put this collage together. I am still a work in progress but this is what I have so far...

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

      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! 😞
