So exciting! And to have it paid for by insurance?! Wow, go for it! I'm meeting with a PS tomorrow to talk about what I should have done and to get a cost estimate.

Congratulations!!

Congratulations!

[mention=352045]Freiabr[/mention] you look great in all of them! I'm jealous your arms are so great that you can go sleeveless! Here are my top 3 for you:

Hahaha!

Congratulations!!

You are beautiful! Congratulations on your success over all the tests, and for putting the breaks on the 9 lb gain. You've got this!

Yay!

Congratulations! What a transformation!

Great news!! So happy all your hard-fought efforts were a success!!

I skip weighing myself when I think it's going to be an upper. No need to be blasted with something I already know, only to make me feel worse.

What protein goal did your Dr or nutritionist give you in the one year to maintenance time frame post surgery? I know we all have different guidelines and plans but I'm still curious.

I'm in the not-telling-I-had-surgery camp where only close family and friends know I was sleeved last Aug 2018. Now at 100 lbs lighter people have been coming up to me more often asking questions. This post isn't up for debate on whether I should tell others about my surgery. Rather, I'm just wondering if a non-surgery patient could be successful by following some of our bariatric guidelines, e.g. logging food (at a calorie deficit), focus on protein first to feel full, limiting carbs, drinking lots of water, etc

@FluffyChix @catwoman7 remind me, what is the metabolic reset and why do only WLS patients have that advantage?
