LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted March 13, 2011 On Tuesday the 15th I will be 6 Months post op... I can't believe how time flies!!! I guess as they say, it happens like that when you're having fun. I feel incredible (aside from my stomach bugs, which I'm taking care of right now) and my panels all came back amazing. My PCP is very impressed and when I told her I'll be running a 5K her eyes went big and shocked like. LOL!!! She is really beside herself and she told me I got it right this time... (surgery ) Not only that, she told me to stop all of my high blood pressure medications. So... NO LONGER HYPERTENSIVE!!! Thank you sleeve, thank you Dr. Aceves for believing I could do it, and thank you to all of YOU for your support and motivation. :wub: Here are my six month progress pictures. I changed my goal simply because I really don't think I still need to love 60+ Lbs. If I do end up losing that much, I just don't think I'll have the shape I really want. I'm very close - so here's to the next 49 - YEAHHH!! Six Months Post Op Pics (ETA) I'm wearing the pink sweat jacket I bought from Target, Size M: 281 Pounds, just before my VSG surgery: 330 Lbs, My highest weight ever... Then me at about 300 Lbs...
