Just-A-Gem 86 Posted January 25, 2012 I am not quite 5 months out (about a week and some days away) and I am down 70 lbs as of last Friday. I still have a hard time seeing it.. Can't wait to lose some of my lower belly so I can start really dropping sizes. I know this will be an issue because I've had two vertical c-sections and where before I never stored fat in my belly, after it seems like one of my greatest stores. I still have a goal of 100 lbs lost by my 6 month surgiversary. I know it's a lot before March 2nd, but I just started running again, so there's a chance right? Even if I don't make it to that goal, by that date, I will make it. That's all that matters. I am not quite to the halfway point on my journey, but I'm close. So here are some pictures to document that. The first picture is me and my sleeve sister GardenDiva... Where is she?! The before are from morning of surgery. The progress are from this morning. I just wish that I could see the changes that it seems everyone around me is getting hip to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
