6 Months Post Op- Pics
Pre-op reading everyone's stories and seeing pictures was very helpful to me. So passing it forward....
I'm just past my 6 month mark. I have lost just under 60 lbs and am very happy. I know others have lost more but I am happy with my loss.
I have had no complications and lab work has been good. I have had lots of hair loss but I was expecting that. I have thrown up a few times but usually due to me forgetting to chew enough. No big deal.
Honestly for me- all the stuff to get surgery was harder then surgery itself or life after surgery.
Here is a before and after pic to share-Valerie

Fabulous!! What a difference!! And please don't feel down about others losing more. Most people lose about 50% of their excess weight at the 6 months mark and you look like you've surpassed that. Keep up the good work!!
