For example, here is a pic of me 2 weeks PO (which was 50 pounds below my HW) and a pic from the other day. Honestly I felt like I was looking pretty good in the “before” pic because I was already so much lower. The difference between the 2 pics is another 55 pounds is gone. 10 2 FluffyChix, Orchids&Dragons, FluffySaysForkIt! and 9 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KaysMommy 1,089 Posted August 25, 2019 Happy Sunday everyone. I’m just headed to town for an AA meeting. I’m a firm believer we need to educate new coming bariatric patients of the addiction transfer possibilities. My now diagnosed PTSD from all my complications, and the transfer addiction, sure didn’t help. But now I’m on the right path, 2.5 years and going strong. Have a great day ladies. 13 Orchids&Dragons, Losingit2018, MIZ60 and 10 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
