13 Months and 130 Pounds Gone Forever !!!



Recommended Posts

That's an amazing statistic! 10 pounds a month. It's jaw-dropping.

Do people even recognize you? That's probably another pleasure you enjoy that isn't food related.

Keep up the good work. I'm going to remember your story as I go forward.

Thanks for sharing.

you are doing great, it was an inspiration to read your post.

I too had a wake up call. on planes the seat belt was at its limit. 5 more pounds and I would have had to have a seat belt extender.

I also quit having baths, as it was too hard on the knees and legs to get in and out.

The band has given me a new life, and the gym has been great. I can now ride my bike and now go to the gym with my 11 and 13 year old.

Life is turning out to be great.

Wow! You truly are an inspiration to everyone. I love your honest thoughts, and there are many of us on here that are grateful for them. I am due to go for my first appointment with the doctor (i live in UK), and have been looking for inspiring stories like yours. I have so many concerns, but more so, am excited about the future. I have learnt so much from reading about personal experiences like yours.

You are an amazing person. Despite having negativity around you from those close to you, you have come through and shown them! Be proud of yourself, you are amazing!:thumbdown:

I just read your post and am floored. I like so many others here can relate. I am just so thrilled reading about your success! I just cant wait until I get my surgery done and over with. I am 43 years old and have a 7 year old that I want to enjoy life with again! Things are so much easier when you are living in a body that you control and it doesnt control you. When I read about leg crossing..I laughed cause I thought to myself, that is one thing that I cant wait to do. Folding my legs under me too without cutting off the circulation too will be nice..lol

Congrats again and thank you oh so much for sharing. You are beautiful..inside and out! Keep on the right track we are all cheering for you!!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
