3 month post op and
I had my 3 month post op check up yesterday, doc is very pleased with my progress, I've lost 56% of my excess weight according to their calculations from surgery date, which is what they hope for 6 months out.
This am on my scale I am at 169 which puts me at a bmi of under 30..... I'm overweight!!! No longer obese yay!!!!
Last week I pulled out some of my skinny clothes because my 16 jeans fall off and tried some on and some of the stretchier 8s fit! A little tight but if I don't have to buy middle sizes I'll take it! Holy crap I'm actually pulling size 8 jeans up and buttoning them!
My husband and I got married 4 years ago in June, never took a honeymoon bc we bought a house, I started a new job, etc. well we are taking an alone trip to Vegas for our anniversary, I can't wait!
Victories all over the place!
Wonderful!!!!! Have a great vacation/late honeymoon in a new tiny size!!!

No secrets, looks like you are doing fantastic!
My typical day is 75-90gm protein and 80 oz water 700ish calories.
Bkfst greek yogurt
lunch 3 oz protein and a Babybel cheese or couple bites of salad
dinner 3 oz fish chicken or beef and some veggie
snack a protein bar or shake
second snack sometimes a Popsicle or 100 cal pack of almonds.
not exciting but it's working great! Pretty much no white carbs ever, no potatoes, very little rice, no bread.
