That must feel like a weight has lifted off your shoulders! I don't mean your weight loss I mean that animal that's literally on your shoulders. No but seriously, all kidding aside your results are amazing. You look fantastic!! What a beautiful lady you are, congratulations

Very happy for you! I'm bummed though. I didn't know Old Navy ran big. All this time I thought I was hot in my size 14s... lol

Oh no, I'm sorry!!!! Maybe it's just me but I always drop down in size in Old Navy before I do anywhere else. Didn't mean to bum you out :( I'm sure you are still hot in your size 14's!!!!

Congratulations! Amazing transformation!

Funny how camera shy most of us are when fat, but that disappears along with the weight!

Ok, I'm a little late posting my nine months pics, but here they are... I've lost 107 lbs with 12 more to go until goal. Went from a size 22 pants to a 6, (ok 8) but I bought a pair of shorts and a skirt in a size 6 from Old Navy (and, yes, they fit woo hoo). I know Old Navy runs a little bigger, but I'm owning the 6 lol! I'm comfortably in a size 8 pants with every other brand. I went from a XXXL or 26/28 shirt to a medium. The sleeve has been my lifesaver. I no longer have sleep apnea (yes, my husband is grateful to not sleep next to a logging truck). I have Rheumatoid Arthritis but have not had a flare-up since 3 weeks after surgery. My life is awesome right now. I feel so good I want to shout from the roof tops. I am able (and willing) to do so much more than I would before. I love to wear dresses and skirts now. I wouldn't be caught dead before. It was just too uncomfortable.

If you are contemplating and are on the fence about whether to do the surgery, do it!!!! It was the best thing I have ever done for myself.

I know, I need to find a different before picture but I avoided cameras so there aren't that many of me before.

After:

Good luck to everyone else that is on this wonderful journey. I wish for you to all reach your goals no matter what they are!

Hi there,
you look fabulous!!!!!
Good job!!! I am also grateful for my sleeve, I am down 70lbs with 30 more to go, I was just
wondering did you stay on a strick protein diet and exercise the whole time???
I would love to know, also was it hard to lose the arm weigt??? I have big arms and im having a problem losing my weight there...
Please share....
Thanks,Lisa
