17 years!
Good morning all. 17 years ago today I was starting on a life changing journey. When I went for my surgery consult I was at my heaviest - 288lbs, currently I am now 135lbs. It took hard work and dedication to not only lose the weight but to maintain the weight loss for all these years. I eat healthy, workout and take care of myself inside and out. I get a physical annually and still take my vits/sups every day :-)
I am loving this life and so glad I made the decision to have surgery and be successful at it.
First visit to surgeon - 288 ~ bmi 45.1
2 week pre-op 252 ~ bmi 39.5

Goal weight - 155 (mine) 180 (surgeons)
Current weight - 135 (2020 I lost 10lbs due to dedicating myself to working out more and being in better shape)

Congratulations on your journey and successes along the way! It sounds like it's been a lot of work and maintenance to stay on track. Kudos! You're reaping the rewards for that work. Thanks for checking in! It's good to hear from more of the folks who are further out from surgery!
Wishing you the best!
