OK...I haven't posted in a very long time but I'm getting really close to my goal so I figured I would post some pics. I'm really excited with my "new" body but I'll be even more excited when I have my lower body lift in the spring. I can't wait. Well...here goes...

Well, I said I wouldn't do this until goal, and I don't have any full body pics, but here are some of the difference in my face. The first one was taken in November shortly before I was banded. The second one was taken last night (with no makeup on, what was I thinking?)

The band is one of the best things I ever did for myself. Physically I feel so much better than I did a year ago. And it is nice to be able to wear cuter clothes too! :thumbup:

Now 207

Dr K in CO

Thanks for the advice over the last 9 months. I got done to 197 but didn't lose the flab on the belly so I am done for now at a safe weight for 6'3.

Its been quite a while since I dropped in - I have had a huge 12 mths.

My marriage ended, I lost my job and my daughter left home against my wishes.

I have finally got my own place now and have settled back in so thought Id pop in with an update.

I am now down 50kgs/110lbs woooohooooo!!!!

I didn't take a before pic on my surgery date of May 19th. The first pic I took was on July 12th and I had already lost 38 lbs. The second pic is on Sept 21st and down 60.8 lbs, front and side views.

      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! 😞
