Today is my 6th month since surgery. For those of you about to go through the surgery I can tell you the time just fly's by! It is crazy to think that in only 6 months so many things have changed. I actually weigh less now than I did in High School. I hope that the next 6 months fly by like the first and that I can say by the end of a year out that I am at goal!

Starting Weight was 362 and today I weigh 250. That is 112 pounds gone. My goal is 230 so I have 20 pounds to go!

The goal could possibly be a moving target. But 230 gets me out of obese. Plus I have no idea what I will look like at 230 hell I didn't know what 250 was going to looks like. At my heaviest ever I was at 418 so really my total loss is 168!

      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.
