35-40 Pounds Down... Same Sweatshirt!



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Wanted to share some progress pictures... I'm somewhere between 35-40lbs down from my highest weight (which was only 3lbs off my surgery weight) depending on the day, time, etc... I am trying really hard not to be a slave to my scale because it gives me rage, heh. Please excuse the complete lack of hair and makeup in any of these pictures... I swear I'm not this much of a bum every day!

Here are a couple that I took about a month ago (1.5 weeks after surgery) and then yesterday:

40lbs03

40lbs02

Standing on my toes in this one, heh. I'm all of 5'1" so I have to do that to see anything below my torso!

And here's one with my family at Disney in February 2012, 2.5 months before surgery, and one from today. Same sweatshirt! That's sort of what inspired this post, hehe.

40lbs01

I had surgery 4/19/12 and I'm happy with my progress. Not watching the scale helps, trust me. Can't wait for the next 40 to be off!!!

Have a great day everyone :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
