Keira Fae 67 Posted February 19, 2019 I had my surgery jan 22 2018, I am about to be 13 months out. (34year old, 5'7) What a journey. Started at 402lbs, a weight I now can't believe I had. it's crazy and unreal. My skin DOES reminds me that "hey you had that weight" but I am trying to have less floppy skin I wish I worked on it before but it's fine. And maybe tmi but also working on my breasts so they are less in a sad shape. I don't necessarily eat well and I probably eat less that I am supposed to but I am proud. 13 months ago i was at 323.4lbs, today I am at 187.8, sometimes i gained 1-4lbs, then i lose it back and lose some more. I only really had one plateau that lasted a month, i had some plateau that lasted a week or even two but after weight somewhat catched up, losing in general from 6lbs to 10-12lbs per month, I still got a few to lose to not be in "bmi overweight" but i am no longer in obesity. I am focusing more on my skin then my weight loss. I wouldn't say surgery changed my life, but yes it improved it. I sometime see myself bigger then I actually am. I am still afraid to sit in booth thinking I won't fit... yet i fit with space to go. my shirt size went from like 3x to M or L. picture of day of surgery at 323 and now 11 1 7 1 FancyChristine15, skylw6, Wanda247 and 17 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
