Before and after photos....



Recommended Posts

I still have another 30-35 pounds to lose' date=' but it's my most recent "before and after" 228 pounds lost (so far). The before pic was the day of my surgery 20 months ago. The after pic is my daughter and I both in the pants from the before pic. [/quote']

This is such an inspiration. I'm 23 and weighed 365lb before surgery a little over a month ago. I'm at the beginning of my journey and love before and after pictures like these! Well done. You look incredible.

Honestly, it makes me so happy when I see young people take their health back. I was about your weight at your age, too. I wish to God I'd have done something about it back then- before the scale got over 400 pounds and I spent my adult life miserable. I'm 40 now and finally happy, but just think what an awesome life you're creating for yourself! It's pretty amazing :)

That is how I saw it - I could struggle for another 20 years, or I could take control now. I was ready to give up before I had my daughter, but I started thinking about all the things I couldn't do with her, and all the ways she would miss out if I stayed on the same course. She saved my life!

I started at 191, I only lost about one pound a week, but I preferred it to come off slowly, chances are better for it to stay off.....trust me I am at a point now that I don't want to lose anymore weight. I went from wearing 12/14 to 2/zero....

You will get there....

I was banded in Feb this year at 340 lbs, and got good restriction after 2 fills by July. I'm now at 265, with a goal of 170 (I'm quite tall). Here are my before and afters :-) will post a current full body one soon too. Xx

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
