What 100 pounds less of a Gamer looks like



Recommended Posts

The first shot is me in August 2012, somewhere at or above my highest recorded weight of 383. I'm wearing a size 5x (32/34 or thereabouts) pant and 4x top. The second is about two weeks after my October 22, 2012 procedure in early November. The last is me today at about 280. I'm wearing a size 22 pant and a 2x top.

I don't even recognize the person in the mirror some days and I no longer dread it when people say I look like my pictures. I've still got a way to go, but I'm very pleased with the results a little more than four months out.

Also, a muscle builder Vitamin may help, and doing weights everyday for the triceps. Eat high

amounts of Protein. It would be best to ask the doctor about it and ask a trainer at the gym to

show you some of the tricep building techniques.

Wow! You look fantastic! Ive seen you mention some online games..along with your name, so thought you might find this interesting...I bit the bullet and stopped playing World of Warcraft when i began this process. I decided i needed to use that time to make myself move my butt more. ...was really hard and i still have "hunger pains" for it, but think it was a healthy move for me. Life was way to focused/planned around a guild run! Your progress is so very inspirational! Thanks for showing us!

Good for you

All your hard work is paying off!!!! :)

seeing "less and less" of you in that mirror - it is definitely you!!!! :)

you will gradually say good-bye to that great person - as you continue to see less and less of yourself :)

keep up the great work!!!!

      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.
