Riva_G. 40 Posted May 27, 2020 I’m no longer obese!!!! I have been obese since I’m 5 years old. This is an amazing accomplishment for me. I never thought I’d get to this point. I can go shopping in whichever store I fancy. My last shopping trip EVERY item I took into the dressing room FIT! I had to get out of there fast. I came home and balled my eyes out... it’s crazy!!!! I am so thankful for this... I can’t explain the emotion going on inside me so I won’t try, all I’m going to say is, if anyone out there is considering surgery but is scared, PLEASE do this for yourself! I promise it will be the best decision you’ll ever make! 7 6 BlueIGT, momof3_angels, jami.1992 and 10 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lydarose 36 Posted June 22, 2020 That is great! I passed that milestone a couple of weeks ago myself. What a shock, in a good way, to see my after-visit summary from my primary care doc to say “overweight,” instead of “class 3 morbid obesity.” 2 mil_unloaded and Hop_Scotch reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
