I hit my one-year anniversary yesterday at 149.5 lbs.(lost 102.5 lbs).  Met with my surgeon on Tuesday,  and he was very happy with the results.  He expected me to be at 175 at one year, so I exceeded his prediction.

I was in a 22 pant and 2x to 3x top.  I am now a size 8-10 pant, M-L top and lost a whole shoe size also.

I am right where I want to be.  At 61 my face cannot afford for me to lose any more weight.  It has really taken a toll on my face (and my poor chest - or at least what is left of my chest!).  I have actually been called "skinny", and it is still so foreign to me.  Sometimes I am still stunned when I look in a mirror.

I don't have any pictures handy, BUT THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE!

I'm only 3.5 mo out. I started at 244 and today I weigh 172. Start I was in a 3x top and a 1x (18-20) bottom. Right now I'm in a Large top and size 14 or medium bottom. My goal weight is 120 as I'm only 5'3" but I have a lot of time to get there.

I was 283.5 before surgery, 24-26 or 3X or whatever I could get that stretched and fit.  I am 140lbs today and a size 6.

 I'm 1 month shy of 7 yrs post op from the Duodenal Switch (dsfacts.com).  

I was a size 24 at my highest weight of 286 lbs. 

My lowest weight was 140, and my size was an 8 (sometimes 6)
Today, the batteries in my scale are dead, but I'm a solid size 10 (sometimes 12) and I like my boobs better at this weight.  With my curvy shape, I seem to carry it in the right places, so I'm still very pleased with the results.
