Being an “old chick", (will be 60 in a few months) I have had a struggle losing the weight post op as older folks don’t lose as quickly as the young’uns But can now say that I have lost 100 pounds and am now in onederland. Every day is a blessing, as I have increased my probability of living a long healthy life. My BMI has gone from 51(when I started the bariatric process, it was even higher before that!) to 34. I have gone from size 4x tops and 3x pants to a LOOSE size 16, and a size medium spandex pants. I can likely fit into a generous size 14 outfit. Not bragging, just amazed! you can see the difference my WLS has made so far by clicking on these two links the first pics were the old me... http://images.obesityhelp.com/uploads/profile/915502/albums/ 107569/progress.jpg and this is the "new and improved" me http://images.obesityhelp.com/uploads/profile/915502/albums/ 107569/suzyq%20with%20gator%20feb%2019%202012.jpg Life IS good!!

WOW, that is quite the transformation!!! You must feel so fabulous!!! I am still pre-op but cannot wait to be on the bench. I hope to be done by end of July. Thank you for sharing, it leaves me with such a positive attitude. You must be so proud of yourself.

Love the little gator too!

You look amazing and that picture of you currently looks like it was taken at Gatorland in Orlando! I was there just over 22 years ago, but it was the catalyst to me falling in love with reptiles ... :)

Congratulations for getting to Onederland ...
