102 lbs gone! 8 months post op =)

[Mandaqt532 11]

Hey everyone!! Wanted to update you all and tell you all that I have lost 102 lbs so far! I am 8 months post op, and I feel GREAT! I am 23 years old and was obese, now I am not longer taking ANY medications anymore! , having heart disease and being obese was very scary. Now I don't have to worry about my health as much! For those who know me here know that I suffered from severe depression after surgery. I was hospitalized because I was ready to end it all... I guess I never realized how much food meant to me. I was a true food addict. Now I am on prozac and am happy as can be!! I plateaued for about 1 month at the 4 month mark, but now it just continues to come off... I am now 135 LBS!!!!! I never thought I'd see the day! The only issue I am having is eating, I forget to eat a lot, and sometimes I only eat once a day. I have no been following a diet, I eat whatever I want. I don't eat ice cream or candy, but I do eat pizza and chicken nuggets. BIG THANKS to all the people on here that supported me from day 1! I met a lot of great people on this website!

Miss Latina. No secret. I just eat soo little, which Im sure u all do! My surgeon said she made my sleeve very very skinny. I dont work out and i dont diet. Which is terrible, but i work 12 hour days as a nurse. I think being 23 makes it easier to lose weight as well? Im not sure though.
