almost 3 yrs postop..from 354lbs to 185..very happy!
Hey everyone! I haven't been by here in awhile, just got busy with life i suppose. My divorce was final this past September. I have moved out into my own place, trying to find a job..and just figuring out what i want to do when i grow up!! lol
I will be 3 yrs postop April 16th...and i can hardly believe it's already been that long. I am still losing when i put in the effort. Just dropped 7 pounds in the last month. I am finally at the point where i want to get off another 20 pounds. I've been scared of what my skin would be like if i lost more, so i just maintained and stayed where i was. I am very happy with being a size 12...down from a size 32 jean.
I do have alot of excess skin. My inner thighs..and batwings..those are the worst. Stomach isn't too bad at all.
I started at 354 lbs..a size 32 jean and 4xl top...a 56 BMI..i am only 5ft 5inches. My ring size has went down from an 11 to a 7-1/2..my shoe size from an 11W to a 9...totally crazy!! lol
I still have great restriction. I can only eat 2-3oz for a meal. I cannot drink after eating..for at least 20 minutes or i feel like i will puke. That part is still hard..having to go to dinner..and wait until a little later then having to stop and get myself a drink..hate that. I still never feel hungry. I have never had any issues with acid reflux..and never taken anything for it.
I am just very happy!!
Here's a few pictures...
Good Luck everyone...this has been the best decision in my life!!!
