Hi friends. It's been four months post op and I'm down 50 pounds. I wanted to post to let you all know that it is worth it. All the hoops you jump through and all the food you can no longer eat. I just took 7 bags of clothes to the goodwill to make room for new ones. Have a great day. XOXOXOX Updated on 23 Mar 2016: Friends it's been five months and I am down 60 lbs! I plan to take a few selfies at 6 months where I hope to be down 70. I'm currently a size 12. I was a size 18 (tight). I'm still struggling with hair loss and getting protein down. But I am rocking some clip in hair and trying to deal with it. I get stopped all the time at work by people I haven't seen in awhile and I mostly lie. I gues I don't wIsh to be the poster child for surgery just yet. My surgeon asked me to be in the website and I had to decline. But it did make me happy. I wish success to anyone reading this.
