Eclectick 129 Posted April 22, 2015 Congrats and way to go!! It's a proud moment when you see results like that. Keep up the good work. I had surgery on Nov. 24th, 2014 and as of today I have lost about 65 pounds, I guess we are all different in the way our weight distributes but I have gone from a tight 24 to a tight 12....I am proud of the accomplishment as well. :D :D :D :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KSTUZ 438 Posted April 22, 2015 Hey! Yes it's amazing. I work out 4-5 days a week. An hour on elliptical and now I just started adding weights.

Paula Kolarik 6 Posted April 22, 2015 Hey! Yes it's amazing. I work out 4-5 days a week. An hour on elliptical and now I just started adding weights. I wish I was at my final weight, but I still have 60 to go. But thank you all! Still can't believe it's me! Whoop! Wow! You really look amazing & I'm so happy for you! I love the fact you're in the same dress just way smaller size for this photo comparison! You are really an inspiration for me! My surgeon said it was up to me as to which surgery I wanted to have done and since last month I have been on the fence as to whether I should have the sleeve done or have rny done but seeing your results as well as researching my butt off all about both surgeries (especially the malabsorption issue with rny) has me totally OFF the fence now... finally...I'm definitely getting the sleeve done Please keep us in the loop with your great progress!! xo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was where you are now too. I had a hard time deciding. But I then realized this is not an easy fix. I am going to have to work my tush off and change the way i look at food, the way I eat, and the way I think about food. I am so happy I went with this. This is one of the greatest opportunity for all of us. It's a gift no doubt...and I do not plan on wasting it!! I fought hard to have this done. I was denied twice last year for this surgery. Because I had a net gain during my 3 month nut visits. My 37 year old husband had a heart attack and needed a triple heart bypass last year. He is doing well now but it has been a terrible struggle, physically and mentally. 2014 was the worst year of my life. I ended up hiring lindstrom obesity advocacy and they fought my 2nd level appeal. And WON! I began my process jan 7th 2014, my husband had his heart attack 2/6/14. He had his open heart surgery on 2/14/14 (❤️ what are the odds) I gained weight. Denied 7/7/14. Denied again 8/16/14. 9/1/14 hired lindstrom obesity advocacy in CA. 10/11/14 APPROVED!! Surgery date (because of work I had to wait) was set for Jan 5th 2015. This is my year, I am taking back my life. I will not be put down, made to feel inferior, or like i am worthless. This has been the strongest I've felt ever. And if there is anything I can do to help anyone, let me know, so many people got me to this point on here, I don't know how I would be mentally without the support I receive here. Thank you again and I'm so happy you decided with the sleeve! You will love it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
