4 weeks post op.

[Glen Dean 17]

Hello

Glen here with an update.

I'm 4 weeks post op and feeling great. Started to loose weight again. I'm now at 256. Such an amazing feeling and nice when both my guy friends and lady friends say I'm looking fit.

It's so nice.

Thank you all for your support. It really had meant a lot to me.

Thank you

Glen

Little over 3 months post-op and I'm stalled out pretty hard. I'm pretty sure it's just a muscle building "issue" because I'm noticing much more loose and sagging skin now, but for the last 10 days or so now I've been stuck around the same weight. It's frustrating, but I know I'm getting everything I need to be, and I'm under my caloric burn each day, just gotta struggle through it.

That said... I feel down right fantastic.
Working hard on muscle growth, seeing sizes drop, just need that weight to start actually moving again and I'll be even happier!

I understand what your saying. Hang in. It will pick up.

Congrats to both of you guys. I hope to one day be in your shoes. Keep up the good work. I'm sure I'll be asking for much advice the further along I get on this journey.

Stall broke! Dropped below my second goal of 250, onwards to my 3rd goal, which was my dream goal of 200. Only 48 lbs to go to get there!

Thanx @Matt Z . Just clicked the follow button on your profile page but trust as close as our stats are I've been watching your progress. 120 in 4ish months, AMAZING. I really hope I can be so successful. Or even half as....

@Glen Dean Not trying to be nosy just curious what were/are you stats?

Hey J, the numbers are little "mixed up" My initial surgery was Nov of 2011, my starting weight was 370 back then, I had the band, and it didn't do all that great. Lost 70 there, but then that was it. Revised to the bypass this past March and since then I've dropped another 62 ish. I'm not even sure I could handle 122 lbs in 4 months LOL, but thank you! I wish the callout had more options for those of us that have revised, but sadly they don't just yet.

Either way, congrats. Still an awesome accomplishment. I just can't wait to get some of this weight off and hopefully be able to become more active. Start living life again.
