Okay I don't know if anyone remembers me (probably not) but I had gastric bypass surgery January 18, 2013 my SW was 294 and as of today I'm 182...112 pounds down!!! Annnnnnnd I'm 6 weeks pregnant yay! Here are some before and after pics....oh and do I have any regrets? Absolutely not, this surgery was the best thing that ever happened to me

The first pic is the only full body pic of me at my heaviest... SD 1-18-13...HW 294...CW 201

WoooooW you're almost ready to have him! I know you're excited and I promise I wont! I missed you guys

Thank you!!

Hey Jerz thank you so much!!! how are you and the little one!!? how far along are you what are you having?! I'm all excited lol

Thank you so much!!!

Awww thanks sissy!! I've missed you too...I'm glad we're both doing well!!

Thanks again!

thanks hun! I'm a little ashamed to say this but I don't at all and I think that's why I've hot a stall

Thanks Vicki!!

Thank You!!!

Thanks ladies!!! I don't have any (knock on wood) lol but I am starting to see my arms looking a little flabby but I'll take it with a smile!! lol

looking good hun!! awesome progress!!

Tells me that I didn't need the surgery!!!! I understand where they are coming from but it's getting on my nerves....do they honestly think that I would put myself through ALL of this just because?! What really grind my gears is when they don't even educate themselves on the surgery and just assume crap!

Im 8 months out and 93 pounds down...my biggest issue are my boobs...they are flat as pancakes and don't let me bend over they're like saggy vertical pancakes! I don't feel sexy whatsoever (thank God for push ups) ...now here is where I might sound crazy but I remember wishing I had saggy skin because at least I would have some indication that I'm losing weight...for the longest of time I couldn't see that I was...now I do but I still feel fat...I hate going shopping...I get embarrassed when I'm complimented it's just so weird...this surgery affected me more mentally than physically

lololol yessss you better!

I still have my thighs and hips which I absolutely love because I'm curvey almost and I do mean almost like a coke bottle shape lol I was amazed how I still had thighs bc I thought after a 90 pound lost I wouldnt still have them (started at 294) but yea everyone carry their weight differently

My mom actually said she thought I was going to look disgusting...really mom!? The things people say...smh but what keeps me from verbally attacking them is knowing their lack of knowledge and some folks really don't think before they speak.

I'm soooo late but I'm just now seeing this... it's ok to be nervous because it's a major surgery but speaking from my experience I don't regret it one bit and would do it all over again!!

I'm so with you on the slow pacing bc at first I was upset for losing so slowly but I'm so glad that I am bc Im not looking sickly and I think it's better for my skin ya know?

Thank you so much!!!
