100 Lbs down!!! Exactly 8 months out! Sooo excited!
I am truly excited to share that yesterday at exactly 8 months post op I am officially 100 lbs down. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would have imagined being 100 lbs less 8 months ago. This surgery has truly changed my life for the better. Yesterday a friend of mine also had the surgery. I can not wait until she too begins to feel the wonderful results that comes with VSG.
To anyone who is on the fence about the surgery... Go for it!!!!
All I can say is WOW! My surgery is in July, and I have 160 pounds to lose. If I could be down 100 pounds in 8 months, I think I'd cry! Did you stick to all the 'rules' that the people on here who are successful tell you to do?
I'm not the OP but I lost well over 100 lbs in 8 months. I was pretty 'rule' conscious because I knew if I let myself deviate I'd gradually drift back into bad habits.
You can do this!
Highest weight: 335 lbs, BMI 50.9
Pre-op weight: 319 lbs, BMI 48.5
Current range: 140-144, BMI 21.3 - 22
175+ lbs lost, maintaining since February 2012
You are my inspiration. I am so impressed and happy that you shared this. I feel like I can do it too. I will be turning 39 at my 8-month anniversary and I hope that I can say the same.....I am 100 pounds down!!!
Way to go!!!!
