I wanted to share my journey, I'm so happy I'm stepping this path. I hoped I will reach my goal at 12 months but it came so much faster. I hope this will motivate you guys!

I've lost 97 pounds in total with 4 months. The most inches have come off from my belly, 14 inches!! Same from waist and 12 inches from my bum. So happy I took that journey

Congratulations!

If you'd like, you can continue to keep losing. Your BMI is still in the "overweight" category, so you could try to lose more to get into the "normal" category.

Many people experience some regain in years 2 - 3ish, and it's very common to lose additional weight to help fight that.

I'm curious... How did you lose so much Pre-Op? What did you do over how much time? I haven't had surgery yet and am working on Pre-Op weightloss with not much luck...surprise surprise!! Any advice is appreciated. Congrats again!!

Hi, Kelly! I was on ketogenic pre-op diet for almost 2 weeks. One week just ketogenic eating and the other week before surgery I replaced 2 of my meals with protein shakes. No carbs tho!
