I'm a little late, however last week was my 5mth Surgaversary I feel the best I have felt in a long time. My starting weight was 330lbs. Surgery day 306, and today 219. I get so many compliments, and I really enjoy the once in a while head turns or guys breaking their necks. (Not all the time, but once in a while) Or ppl that have not seen me in a while taking double looks before they wave or talk to me. I can't wait to hit goal, I had my gallbladder out on 2/15th so that did finally go bad. But I'm feeling great now it's out. I have my check up with my surgeon today, hoping I can get back to the gym ASAP.  For anyone considering surgery and having second thoughts, I think this is the best decision I have ever made for myself. 



mTop - before surgery at 315lbs
 
Last week 219lbs

Thank you!  I had just joined the gym about 2mths ago and then my gallbladder was taken out on the 15th of Feb. So I can resume working out in 10days. I have an elliptical here at the house and I go to the gym to use the weights or just do both there at times.  I worked out 3 days a week, plus I work 2 jobs and tend to the lovely duties of being a mom and wife. So I keep pretty busy most the time.
