CarmenP 52 Posted June 9, 2019 Hello Everyone! I am post-op RNY, surgery date July 2014, starting weight 302, surgery date weight 290. Today, I’m 190, and I’m four days post-op from an abdominoplasty. Surgeon was able to remove 15 ponds of skin. I’m hopeful to be 175-180 when I’m healed and all my swelling goes down. Here are before and after (the “after” is from 2 weeks ago at the beach, before my plastic surgery). I like to come and read about everyone’s successes. Your stories are always so familiar and comforting to me. Very few people understand the struggles we’ve faced, the nastiness, the hateful attitudes, the condescension (“hey, you should feel lucky we even MAKE clothes in your size!”), and even though I don’t post much, I’ve so enjoyed seeing the happy transformations. ❤️hugs to everyone on this journey!
