9 Months before and after pictures

[TapSnap 357]

So Monday will be 9 months since my surgery (Surgery date was Jan 21st.). I started at 360lbs with a 54bmi. Was in 4XL shirts and size 44-46 pants/shorts. After 9 months I have lost 140lbs now weighing 220lbs and my bmi is right around 30ish. I am now in a XL shirts and in a size 32 pants/shorts.

I workout almost everyday of the week from running, the gym, and Jiu-Jitsu.

If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask. I am very open and love to help.

Here are some pictures

Wow!! Awesome work!!! 140 lbs in 9 months is amazing!!! I am 3 months out and was hoping for 100 lbs by 9 months. Did you stick with the program the whole time? How was your exercising with the low calorie amounts? I am right now working out 4 to 6 days a week depending on my energy level. I work out around 30 to 60 mins each time- elliptical, treadmill, bicycle. And just started with a personal trainer for strength and circuits. I have noticed that on my longer days of working out (more calories burned) I am hungry all day and I feel better when I add a little more carbs into the day. I am suppose to be on only Protein, eggs and cheese still. I really don't see it as going against the program but as for my surgeon it is cause they don't want me eating carbs until after i lose 75% of my excess body weight. I know every surgeons program is different. I am not by any means eating fried foods or white carbs I have had issues with dumping from 2 things (coffee and cookie) so far and so fried foods and white rice scare me cause i can only imagine how I will react.

I fellow my program almost to the T. I eat 5-6 times a day. I drink a Protein Drink first thing in the morning and another one after my work outs (if I don’t work out I don’t do another Protein drink), followed by my Vitamins. Around noon I eat a Quest bar then have 2 regular meals meat protein and some veggies for my first and second brake. Then another Quest bar later in the night around 11pm.

When I do feel like I need a little something I eat some fruit and nut trail mix or some string cheese.< /p>

I do treat myself to sugar free frozen yogurt once a week or some sugar free chocolate milk.
