How much have you lost?? Let's weigh in!
Hey, we haven't done this in a while.... Not that the holidays are done and we have gotten back to some serious work, where is everybody? Where did you start and where are you now? It is time to boast! After all, how many other diets have you been on for six months and lost this much weight? (Never for me!)
Eileen pre-op 337 / current 244 / loss of 93
Pre-op 321, Current 242, Loss of 79
Since I am always curious about other's shapes and sizes (I guess I am always trying to find a standard to compare myself to, ya know?), I will add that I am 5'9" Started in size 30/32 tops, and 26/28 pants. Now in size 22/24 tops and 18 pants.
My husband also had surgery two weeks before me. Started at 428 and is now 308, total loss: 120 pounds! He is a new man and he is all MINE!
Wish my loss was going a little quicker, but really can't complain. Had I NOT had surgery, I have zero doubt that I would weigh at LEAST 321 and would STILL be whining that my fat clothes didn't fit.
I am so grateful to my surgeon and insurance company for allowing me this opportunity. It is like our own little "grammy" award that we wear everyday. Mine is represented by the big ol' smile plastered to my face and the constant jumping on and off the scale routine that occurs several times daily! And ya know, several people in my life keep telling me my a$$ is looking awesome (without me asking! It is very flattering, let me tell ya!) Now if only the hidden lumps and bulges would go away!
