8 pounds from 100 lost. a milestone that I could have never imagined without this blessing.

20 days post op and BMI down 5 points! Happy with progress.

I was approved for Sleeve to RNY revision!!!

Today is GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY DAY wish me luck and please say a prayer for speedy recovery

I don't know what the heck I ate that wasn't right, but this is the worst gas I've had since surgery almost 10 months ago. Feel like I should tie my ankle to the chair so I don't float off, lol.

Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed, it means that the damage no longer controls our lives.

Weighed in this past Saturday 5 more pounds down!!!!!

Well it's about time, life is settling down and a new recipe is coming tomorrow

I am 1 year post op this month... it was so worth it!

OKCupid, here I come... soon... I think...

Today is my wife and me 8 year Band Anniversary

Got the opportunity to meet Kelly Clarkson last night before her concert here in Atlanta. When I looked at my pic with her, I am very close to her size. An eye-opening moment. This journey is incredible!

Sometimes I just want to wear a sign when I'm out that says, "I've lost SIXTY POUNDS. I'm fat but I used to be a lot fatter. So it's fine if I'm buying nutella because gosh darn it, sometimes fat people need nutella too, and I deserve it!"

Tomorrow is my BIG day !!!!!

Officially down 151 lbs, 124lbs since surgery! I never thought I'd experience joy when standing on a scale!

I cant believe im 152lbs lighter! Geez and im half the weight i usto be!

Hey everyone! It's been a not so great eating weekend. I have been struggling. But dammit, gonna change that this week! BOOM let's rock! xx

looking for people with Diabeties

had my surgery Wednesday the 26th. So happy.

I've lost 8 pounds!

Its good that the only worries I have at the moment are what I'm going to do with my enormous pants and belts.

So, I had an appointment at three months post surgery on Wednesday. Am down 75 pounds since May. Kind of can's believe it, but the scale says it is so... I started with a higher BMI, and understand that the rate of loss will slow as I go on, nevertheless I am proud of what I have accomplished. I was not a candidate for RNY due to having malabsorptive issues with vitamins already, but my bariatric team says I am doing really well. I have been inspired by so very many of you and am thankful to have found this site. I keep waiting for the ticker at the bottom to get to three million. It is astonishing what WLS has helped me do. I am now focusing on adding in more exercise.

3 Wks Post-Op Today! Down 16 pounds. A little slow since the first week, but I'm doing my best to be patient.

I'm excited to start my journey, and really nervous too.

I am approved! Checked the mail this weekend to find that BCBS had approved me for surgery, and now I am just waiting for the call from my surgeon to set the date! Wooo Hooo!
