75#'s gone forever

I wanted to share this awesome news with all my month mates! I posted these pics elsewhere but wanted to share them here for you all. The changes have been amazing and I can't say I've made any better decision ever besides to marry my husband. This is awfully comparable though.

15 pounds will give me a 5 pound buffer between me and overweight. I think I will be happy there. I'm happy with my size right now. If I were to stop here I would be okay with it. Not happy but okay. I want to be "healthy" weight though. That means a lot to me. I want to say I'm healthy. I want to go to the doc and have them not say "You could use to lose a few pounds."

25 will be the most I lose. I couldn't lose more than that and feel good about myself. At least that's what I say now. I still want to have a bit of my chest left....and it's going left and right.

But thanks for the complements. I do appreciate them.

Here are the instructions on how I do pictures.

I open my picture using any editing program and crop it to whatever size I want it. If it is a high resolution pic I then have to "shrink" it by resizing it to a size that will post here. It has to be under 1 mb to post here. Don't resize it too small though because it's easy to go down and hard to go back up.

Once it is the size I want it I save it to my desktop so it is easy to find. I open a new message or reply, not a quick reply, and use the paper clip to attach each one. Sometimes I have to do a little more fiddling because I have made them too big still.

I don't use an online program to post my pics to. I just upload from my computer. Once they are uploaded I can do whatever I want with MY pics on MY machine. If they are on photobucket or something then if you move them the link doesn't work any longer.

I hope that makes sense. I also like the thumbnails because I don't have to shrink them a really tiny size.

      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!!

      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! 😞
