  1. Today I celebrate my one year Surgical Anniversary! On Monday, July 28, 2014 Dr. Alan Leslie Schuricht performed a gastric sleeve on me at Pennsylvania Hospital where I weighed 343 pounds (my high weight was 363 pounds) and a year later I am 143 pounds lighter and weigh 220 pounds! Thanks Dr. Schuricht and Penn Bariatric Medicine! Thanks to the following: Dr. Sara Slattery and the team from Penn Medicine Fitness Now; Beth Marks, www.GetFitNowNJ.com and Kennedy Health Bariatric Fitness; Personal trainers from the YMCA of Burlington and Camden County! I am also thankful today to my beautiful wife, Jan and my great kids Liz and Matt!

    Before plastic surgery. Post weight loss

    I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery August 2011. I losit 120lbs. My weight on these pictures was 142lbs. They were taken my my plastic surgeon, Dr Victor Gutierrez located in Baja California, Tijuana, Mexico. I chose him as my plastic suregeon based on his educational background, experience, professionalism, health care concern and reasonable price quote. This pictures clearly show lots of extra skin. My asymmetrical breasts, hanging stomach, and flat butt.

    My Journey

    October 31, 2011 was when my new life begin. After the passing of my dad in March 2011, I realized I was an excellent caretaker for him, but not of myself. My weight had ballooned and my health was in trouble. The realization that I had just buried my dad, and if I did not take control of my life, my mom would be burying me. I chose life and had gastric bypass on Halloween last year. My life could not be better. (Ok, so I could have a man in my life, but hey it's very good). My starting weight was 268 size 22 and I wear a size 12 now! Life is good and I am blessed! I don't know what God has in store for the next half of my journey, but I am ready for the ride.

  8. after losing weight did anybody have an issue with a tattoo they had when they were larger

    1. JamieLogical

      JamieLogical

      I don't have any tattoos, but I could definitely see how that could become a problem, depending on where the tattoo is, how much weight you lose, and how much loose skin you have in the area.

  9. thank you weight loss fairies for taking those pounds away

  12. Sleeve is working, so why did I find myself ALMOST biting on some ridiculous miracle weight loss drops one of my friends is using? Dumb, dumb, dumb - get it together, girlie!

      It IS some crazy programming! It's also funny how, when you start losing weight, people who don't know what you're doing all of a sudden crawl out of the woodwork and try to sell you diet aids. There's no better diet aid than cutting out 80% of your stomach, lol.

      I still find it funny how every time I see an ad for some new diet miracle I find myself watching it and literally thinking I wonder if that works! LOL I think that was one of my worst bad habits, falling for a the crappy diet fads that did not work long term. Good job staying away!

      wow, thanks guys!!!

  14. 3 months out and I'm losing all taste for food. I now because I have to. I don't really enjoy anything now. I hope this passes. I mean its good for my weight loss but it sucks to feel like I dont like my food all the time.

      ShrinkingPeach

      For me I would rather have this new relationship with food and lose weight than be hungry and tempted by food. I needed this better relationship with food because the one I had was unhealthy.

      Medi619

      I dont mind the change in my relationship with food. I just mind not liking what I have to make myself eat. Im actually glad the sweet tooth is gone though. I dont miss that.

      I feel the same way so unless it's really flavorful I just don't care if I eat it. spice rack has grown.....

      Hi there. Glad to hear you're doing well. Can't wait to start on puréed food on Thursday! Your sleeve sister, Iris

      Congratulations to you both, @wascott and @salonmom! Wascott, I hear you on the exhaustion, I know I started to feel a million times better about a month out, but the first few weeks are definitely healing time for your body. But 2 1/2 months out I was back to walking 4 miles a day and feeling great about the whole process. Congratulations and keep up the good work!

      I hope I get that energy back. I've been doing some walks on the treadmill but I'm really dragging. I appreciate your insights.

    Post Surgery..almost near goal weight~

    So I haven't posted in awhile, but I am so happy with this journey, tough, frustrating and all! I started at 254 and am now 175. Went from a size 22/24 to a Medium top and 10/12 pant. I look younger at 41 then I did at 30~

    Pre-Surgery

    I started in Jan. 2011 @ 372, through out the pictures I lost weight but not enough. When I had the surgery August 29, 2011 I weighted 303 lbs.
  22. Hey! Guess what, As of today I have lost more than I have to lose! 169 lbs lost since my highest weight, only 161 lbs to go!!!! I'm half way there!

  23. I don't remember ever being this cold during winter months!!! BURRRRRR weight loss maybe? I am always freeeeezing!

  24. Uhhh, I've apparently reached a place in my weight loss where I'm no longer "fat enough" for people to be uncomfortable referring to being fat around me. Not sure I like this stage...
