Thank you, much appreciated 🤗

Yes I do get hungry, but I still get sick if I eat alot. I can only eat kids size meals. I have to eat slowly still. Sugar drinks makes me very sick, but I can eat a little sugar treat but not much.

Thank you very much, it's been a long journey

Sorry these are my before pics at 244lbs my highest weight was 277 and I now weigh 158lbs after 4 years.

Been almost 4 years since my surgery and I feel like I still dont get real hungry but my stomach does let me know to eat. Then when I do eat, I have to take it slow so I don't get sick.

Had surgery August of 2017, have gained 11 lbs and still keeping it off! ( for the most part anyways..lol) I'm turning 50 years old in July and trying to stay fit has been kinda hard since covid. Anyone out there after a few years of post op? And how are you doing keeping weight off?

Most are from 2017 where thread was started, but now we have all the new august 2018. But us veterans are all eager to help and support all newbies of what we have all accomplished. So welcome!😀

Thank you very much, i really do appreciate it. I feel 20 years younger too!

Honestly, no working out at all here. Just changed everything about how i eat, and making sure its healthy. I do go out to eat alot still, but i make healthy choices when i do. My husband is very happy for me, but he knows i adore him and i wouldnt trade him in for anything...lol i was lucky to have a husband who is very supportive and loving. This journey will change you completely, listen to your dr. and follow all the eating rules. It will suck at first, but it does get better and you will achieve your goals!

Go Royals!!! Yeah, independence mo here. Jeaniered, you look absolutely AMAZING!!! You go girl!!!!

My one year anniversary since surgery was yesterday, im happy to say i have lost 95lbs since surgery and 128lbs since my highest weight. Im alot more active, off most meds, sleep apnea totally gone. Im such a different person now, been back to work for 5 months now after being home for 7 years because of health reasons. What a brand new world out there! And most importantly, IM HAPPY😀 Posting pic of highest weight of 277lbs. And pic of me today at 149lbs.

Thank you guys for the nice comments, much appreciated! The best advice i can give is definitely follow your eating plans and drink plenty of water. I also stay away from sugar as much as possible, i might have a belvita breakfast soft banana bread cookie for a snack once in a while or a package of fruit snacks. But i keep in mind never to eat more then 15g in one day. Lots of protein and vegetables to. If you like cauliflower and broccoli, i have found they are very filling.😀 Thank you all again, i have always gotten such wonderful support with bariatric pal!

I bought a size med shirt! Cant even remember the last time i ever wore that size. My one year wls is August 29th🎉🎈🎊 HW:277 SW:244 CW:149

My hair before wls

My hair curly after wls, and now using a flat iron

I did loose my hair as well, and it was very thick curly hair. Happily it did grow back after about 7 months later, but not as curly. Im a year out since surgery and i still have the baby hair still sticking up from places that the hair is regrowing. I did not use and Rogaine or anything else like that personally. All i can say it does come back and hats were my friends for awhile. Wls:8/29/2017 HW:277 SW: 244 CW: 150

Mine is that all my clothes are to big again, after buying new ones only since the beginning of summer. Good news is its going to be fall soon, so more buying new clothes at a smaller size!!! Yeah started at size 24 and now im in 6 and 7.....nice! Wls: 8/29/2017 HW: 277 SW: 244 CW: 150

Its coming up, our one year anniversary. Im so excited to say im only 9lbs from my goal weight. I have till August 29th and i am hoping i can get there. Cant believe i started at a 40bmi and now im a 26, wow! Im very happy with my progress and would definitely say it was the best decision i have ever made. Im the happiest i have been in such a long time😀 when is your anniversary date? SD: August 29, 2017 SW:244 HW:277 GW:145 and today i weigh 154 🎉🎊🎉

My surgery was 8/29/2017 and my day of surgery weight was 244. My highest weight was 277, and now im 158lbs. Im am super happy with my journey, i have actually wore shorts and a swimsuit for the first time in years! My goal is 145 and i hope i can hit it by the end of august. My weight loss has slowed down to only 4-5 lbs a month, but honestly im happy where im at. Im getting ready to turn 47 on july 12, and im actually happy! Have a whole new outlook on life now, and my kids are just as excited as i am. Hint 4kds..lol
