2 Year Post-OP update
On Sept 14th 2017 I will be 2 Years Post-op and thought it was about time that I do a follow-up review.
Moderation, portions, healthy eating, loads of exercise and a full commitment to a lifestyle change have been monumental for my success.
I continue to work out here at home every day without fail and I am still using the MyPlate app and count every calorie I intake and burn. It is my obsession but it works for me : )
lol I have a sweet tooth and my family loves to eat so for me the struggle is real.
I Love the youtube videos for standing abs workouts and suggest those for anyone. I put my air bike and elliptical to good use : )
I have added new pictures because I am so proud of the way I have maintained my results.
I come to this site every week and look at my pictures..... That is a constant motivator for me to never forget and stay focused.
If my story has inspired even just 1 person or helped them to be prepared for what to expect..... Then I feel blessed !!
Thank you all for this site and the way it helps others : )

9 months post
Love my new body !!
I am just about 9 months post op and I couldn't be happier.
All of the hard work and dedication is worth every moment.
I am now a size 5 and holding at 127 pounds.
I will continue to count all the calories I intake and burn off everyday.
Working out is a normal part of my daily routine.
This has not just been a physical change, but a complete lifestyle change for me.
All of the frustration of clothes shopping is a distant memory but a memory I don't want to forget.
Coming back to my before pictures keeps me focused on staying fit, exercising and keeping my results positive.
I can only hope that my story has been some kind of an inspiration to others that have had surgery or considering it.
I love this site. Each post has the potential to help other people through their journey.
Happy Healing everyone !!

You are an inspiration. I am 49 and 10 days away from surgery, and my body looks just like your pre-surgery pics. I am 5'4", weigh 163, and wear a size 8/10 pants right now. I have always had a pot belly but 3 C-sections has made my stomach look terrible!!!!!I am hopeful for an outcome like yours.

I read your post in the truck with my husband.
I have to tell you that it brought tears to my eyes because I posted my story in hopes to help people thinking about or going through surgery like other's stories helped me.
I got that immediate wonderful sense of how much better I feel and how incredibly different I look since making the decision to have surgery and committing to a complete lifestyle change to keep my results positive.
I am very excited for you !!
In 10 days your going to feel brand new. Have renewed energy that you may have lost years ago. And if your anything like me, you will feel like your embarking on a new chapter of life itself.
Yes, there is pain, and Everyone handles that differently. But try to remember that the pain is only temporary and will pass. In a few short weeks you may look at your before pictures with a complete sense of closure to that Body Image.
You are about the exact size I was pre-surgery. I was 5'4" 167 pounds.
With my TT and Lipo I lost 6 pounds.
I have lost a total of 40 pounds and have been able to keep it off with dedication to working out and tracking caloric intake.
I will be looking for your before and after pics and I will keep up with your journey.
Happy Healing
