It's been a couple of months since my surgery and I am just over the moon happy with the results. I've lost 30 pounds and have 40 pounds to go. So, I am halfway there!
The biggest I've been is 230, I was around 22 years old at that point. I lost a lot of weight but then I gained it back. It's always been one of my struggles. This is why I took the decision to do this surgery. I didn't want to waste the remaining of my 20's struggling with my health and weight.
I did have this guilt feeling right after, but I realized it s completely normal. Then when I started seeing all this change, I couldn t help but feel like I did the right decision for myself.
The staff in the clinic was so amazing, they really took care of me. So, a special thank-you, to each one of them.
Weight right before my surgery was 205lbs and currently I am at 175lbs. Goal weight is 135lbs.
