I had my surgery 26 years ago. I've gained a lot back. It's my own fault. I live in an area where I did not have any follow up after my surgery. I lost ove100 pounds. After years I slowly forgot I even had the surgery. Since joining this forum I've relearned how to eat properly. Not to drink after eating. And to foloow the guideline it makes a Hugh difference. My weight is once again going back down. Using the tolls given iam successful again

Update: As of this morning I have officially met my own personal goal of 150 pounds!! I am almost 11 months post op. I am surprised that I have lost the weight so quickly. My family and I have a vacation planned to go to Cedar Point in the near future as a kinda reward for sticking with this. I love roller coasters!! I have attached a couple pics. The 1st is from my bridal shower in 2012 and the 2nd and 3rd are from this morning. Even though sometimes I still see a big person in the mirror I am so happy that I did this and I feel so much better.

@@mwilson1981 you look beautiful wow! What a inspiration! ! If you don't mind can you share your starting weight?

[mwilson1981 36]

My highest weight that I have on record is 280 pounds and that was around November of 2013 right when I started my 6 months of classes before surgery. That is 130 pounds lost total so far. Thank you for the post. It always helps to hear positive comments hope your journey goes well!

Wow! If I'm half as successful as you I will count myself lucky!

[mwilson1981 36]

Good luck to you!! It is a long journey but well worth it in the long run!
