9 months post op w/ pics

[TBodmer71 245]

Woohoo! I was sleeved on August 26, 2013. As of this morning I am down to 182 from 289. I only have 22 more lbs to lose until I hit my personal goal of 160 which will put me in a "HEALTHY" bmi.

I am 5'8". I was in a tight womens size 24 or 3X. I am now a size 8 or 10 and a size large or XL top.

I am so glad I've documented everything along this journey. Here are a few pics that I'd like to share.

My highest weight was 9 months prior to surgery. I started dieting and exercising soon after making the decision to have WLS. I was down to 266 when I started my 2 week liquid pre-op diet. The day of surgery I weighed 251.

I've tried to remember to take a photo every month but have missed a few. The 1st photo is 4 months pre-op. 2nd is 3 months pre-op. 3rd is 2 weeks pre-op. 4th is 2 weeks post-op. 5th is 2 months post-op. 6th is 4 months post-op. 7th is 3 months post-op. 8th is 7.5 months post-op. 9th is just shy of 9 months post-op.
