Okay - I was finally able to find a full before picture of me. I was deathly afraid of the camera so it's sooo hard to find old pictures of me (that aren't just my face!). I was banded August 07. Highest was 263 (I think that's where I am in this picture). Surgery weight 240ish (lost 20 on Jenny Craig). Now down to 173. It's been a while, but I'm still loosing! Slowly but surely! Oh ps - no exercise thus far. I plan to kick up the exercising soon to start toning and hopfully get off another 10 or so. So here it goes....

Before:

After:

Woohoo! I uploaded some other recent pics. The one of me getting my groove on is hilarious. :thumbdown:

Had my surgery in September 07, and have lost 35kg's up to date. Have 5 kg to go before I reach my goal weight of 68. My starting weight was 108kg, and am currently on 73kg.

Keep going everyone. You look great!

This really isn't a before or after, but I've had this skirt for like 5 years now. I could NEVER wear it the way I wanted to because it always pulled over my stomach and looked terrible. Well, I needed an easter Sunday outfit and I figured let me try that skirt on. And guess what? It fit better than the day I bought it. My mom could not believe it! So I'm posting this under "In Progress" haha. I'm down now about 38lbs and it feels awesome.

Hi Everyone! You all look fantastic! I'm only 3 months out so not a huge difference yet but I do have a before surgery picture and recent one in my album.

I hope I do as well as all of you! I've only had one fill so far and not a lot of restriction. At this point, I'm basically dieting. I exercise 6 days a week too :tt1:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
