Yesterday marked 5 months post op for me!

Down 93 lbs in those 5 months and 130 since I started my WLS process.

My favorite NSV is buying shirts anywhere; concerts, festivals, souvenir shops. ETC. Shirts, more my personality rather than the plain ones I bought because they fit.

I don't measure myself too much. I did the night before surgery and have 1 other time I think 2 months ago. I carry most of my weight in my stomach so the only number that really changed was my waist measurement. I will again, but it is not a big deal to me because I can see a drastic change (most days) some days I do still the extra chunky me but most days I easily see the new and improved me.

I am so grateful that this has been so smooth, really haven't had any issues at all.

I hope everyone is doing well, KEEP CHUGGIN! ❤️

My own personal NSV was being able to get into a kayak without plopping down like Pooh Bear, ha, ha.

On the flip side, I look like a stretched out half empty water balloon. ???
