Before and After Pics



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on May 2nd. Highest weight 236 Current weight 168. I still can't believe this is me! For the newbies keep on going! This is the best decision I've ever made.

Dayum! You literally look like you stepped through a time machine. Gorgeous.

Today-- trying on a pair of size 6 pants...down from 24's exactly 8 months post op today. attachicon.gifImageUploadedByBariatricPal1479956648.582926.jpgattachicon.gifImageUploadedByBariatricPal1479956659.828222.jpg

Here is the funny thing... I knew I'd fit into a 6- and the only pair that they had was on a mannequin. Asked the sales clerk to take them off so I could try them on. She looked at me and tried to talk me out of it- saying they run very small. I repeated to her that I wanted to try them on and she obliged but kept repeating that they wouldn't fit, they run small.

Boom.

(I should add that I WAS wearing baggy clothes when I walked in...but STILL!!!)

Sweet!! You are rocking those size 6 cute pants!! Congrats, you look amazing! LOL about the sales person. Probably was just being lazy and didn't want to undress the mannequin.

There is already a huge long thread dedicated to before and afters.. but it is such a fun topic I don't mind repeating!! :)

This is what losing 150 pounds does for you! A girlfriend of mine said the sweetest thing "I didn't know you had a teenage daughter"...LOL. I do feel like I look younger being trimmer.

Taken within the last few weeks

This was taken in December i believe - I think I was 20# away from goal,back when I was a bit curvier. I was feeling pretty good, but, I like how I look better now even if my T&A disappeared since this photo was taken.

Hey y'all!!

Long time, no talk - training for a half marathon and work has been insane lately!

My two year surgiversary was November 20th, and I tried on my old Cotton Ball dress because it was hanging in my closet, lol. (Cotton Ball is a southern cotillion ball - traditional thing with debutantes, etc. - I was 17 when I did it).

Left is from my wedding <3 that dress is a size 28; the one on the right is a size 8 (I'm a 6 generally, but bridal does run small!)

HW: 330

CW: 150

No skin removal

      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.
