anywon 19 Posted November 1, 2016 Im so excited that you chose to share these photos. I could be you almost. Very similar anyway. I just recently took a bunch of before pictures as i am still in the early stages of my journey but after i took the pictures i was looking at them and I couldn't imagine showing anyone else. It takes bravery! Also, I've been looking at before and after photos of so many ppl , just trying to find someone who's body looks similar to mine so i can envision more of what i will look like after and i am very excited to see yours. Thanks for sharing!!! You look great!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RDHender 5 Posted December 6, 2016 Wow! You give me such hope! I get my surgery on Thursday and have been getting more nervous. Of course I'm nervous about the surgery itself and the whole getting used to my new living, but I also have been really nervous about the skin! You look great! Any tips/strategies you can give?

Guest Posted December 6, 2016 @@RDHender I totally know what you mean about the skin. I guess I should start trying to adapt more to the, "one day at a time", I have seen many vids on youtube and the belly is the worse. Let's think about how great we will feel though! Our feet will thank us, our knees for sure Oh, and those fabulous clothes you will be wearing too. I know what a dif it was from 332 lb to 248 lb....I feel the 20 I gained back over the past few months. So ready to get back down, and keep going down. I can't believe the dif those currently 17lb back up feel. Looking forward to this journey. FIVE WEEKS from today is the big day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diana89131 258 Posted December 10, 2016 I've lost a total of 120 pounds, but I feel like I can eat way more than I used to. I had my surgery in May 2013, and kept the weight off, but now I notice that I can definitely eat more and drink more than before.

Guest Posted December 18, 2016 PhotoGrid_1481380415435.png Sent from my SM-N900T using the BariatricPal App Great pic! Since you had this back in 2013, do you still weigh, measure, and stick to the macros (Protein, low carb, etc)? Is it becoming more of a struggle at this point? You look fabulous.

DogMom1204 34 Posted December 19, 2016 Starting weight was 356 Current weight 176.3 On the 25th of October it will be 16 months since surgery for me! I think my skin heeling quickly has a lot to do with my age, (19) Seeing people that I knew from high school that don't recognize me at all is my most favorite thing lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App So freaking awesome. Your stats are so similar to mine well starting weight at least. I'm 21 SW was 350 I'm down to 317 at the moment. Seeing your results are so inspirational hoping my skin handles as well as yours!
