Come on people share your WOW moments.
hi crystal, i was 272 pre op had surgery on 8-21-07 i am downto 187 now i had a mamogram and the paper gown they gave me actually fit. i can't remember when it ever fit it was actually a little big that felt good. might sound silly but it did. i think people should put on here what they have lost because it feels good to tell people and add to it how much better they feel and how they are doing now as to before surgery. less meds,less pain. i would do it again in a heart beat again. best of health to everyone. barb
Pre-Op I weighed 310
For Pre-Op Test, I was at 275
I am presently in the 150's..varies between 153-155.
I had TT in Oct 06 - he removed 15lbs of skin!! 15lbs!!!!
((and he's not done yet- revision in May!))
I started this journey wearing 3-4X tops
size 32 jeans
size 9 shoe
Now-today-- I wear size 10 jeans
size S or Medium in tops (depending on who makes them)
size 8 in shoe! (yea, my feet lost weight too!)
And the best thing about this ---- I can walk 5 miles and not feel like I'm going to die!

I was 268 pre-op and I am now 235 in 3 months. Not as good a weight loss as I was hoping for. I see Dr Carlin this week..and gonna ask annette where I can tweak things. Although...if ya break it down. 11 pounds per month, little over 2.5 pounds a week. If I kept that up....in 52 weeks...wOOHOO 130 pounds off. I would be almost at goal. SIP SIP SIP, WALK WALK WALK!!
Even though I am a few days late, my WOW moment was this weekend. My husband's cousin died Monday evening and the funeral was over this past weekend, some of his family that have not seen me in like forever asked my husband if he got re-married
he laughed and told them no it was really me after that they could not stop talking about how wonderful and fantastic I looked.

My wow moment was when I had my FTT on April 27, and came out flat as a board! He took 9lbs of 'stuff' off of me. Also my new 'girls' are awesome!
