Hi Y'all,

I'm not sure if this would be the right place topost this thread but, i'm gonna go ahead and do it. I've been working so hard and it's taken so long for me to finally be "proud" of my self. I'm now more than half way there. I've lost 60lbs and have 47lbs more to go. I had my surgery 1/24/07 and was in a size 20/22 and here I am 7 months later in a 10/12. It feels so good and it just keeps getting better. I just wanted to be able to share that w/ people who appericate and understand how hard this journey can be for all of us.:clap2:

      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.
