7weeks on and I'm happy



Recommended Posts

I started my weight loss journey at 123kilos. I lost 3 kilos while waiting for my specialist appointment. I had a 2 week preoperative diet of Optifast shakes and vegetables only in which I lost 7 kilos. Surgery was almost 7 weeks ago now. I am now at a total loss of 21 kilos which makes 11 kilos in the last 7 weeks. I am feeling really good. The pain in my feet had disappeared. My energy levels are up. I am tolerating all foods and just had steak and Pepper sauce for dinner. Quantity of food is still small but i am enjoying it. My surgery met my expectations and the docs and dietician happy too. I am proud of myself for making the commitment and i know it was the right decision for me.

      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.
