3 months post-op pics

[Pepper Paul 143]

So holy crap! It's been quite a 3 months for me. My surgery was uneventful. No complications to speak of. I haven't had any issues with any foods not agreeing with me. I'm just over 3 months out and I'm down 75 pounds! I started at 360 and today I'm 285. I can't remember the last time I was below 300. I've been exercising a lot and have more energy than I've had in years. I mow the lawn twice a week and have even started to mow other people's lawns just because I enjoy the exercise. People comment literally every day how great I look. I was in 22" shirts and now I'm in 18.5". Before surgery I was in size 54 jeans and now I'm in size 42. Like I said, its been quite a 3 months for me. Best decision I ever made for myself!

The photo is in the same shirt, just with 75 less pounds packed into it! I hated taking the first photo, I loved taking the second!
