Today is 8 months from the day of my surgery!!  I am 5"9" and weighed in at 325 and wore a size 24 jeans and 4x shirt.  I weigh 177 today and wear a size 12/14 jeans and size large/xlarge shirt.  I am only 8 pounds away from a healthy weight for my height.  That surgery was the best thing I ever did for myself!!  Over Thanksgiving, I saw several family members that I haven't seen since my surgery and they were shocked!!  Most of them said I looked like "me" again!  That's exactly how I feel...I feel like myself again!!!  What a wonderful feeling!!

That is awesome, you have had a great journey, I am 2 months behind you and you are an inspiration to me!!angry

It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. It requires sacrifice. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it's WORTH IT! (Author Unknown). I feel this sums up my ongoing journey to a healthier me!

Great Job!  What a wonderful holiday you must be having.  Thanks for posting your height, weight and clothes size.  I am almost 5'9" and currently weight 190.  It's nice to see what size people wear depending on their height.
