Yes ma'am my address and email are still the same. I am doing well. I gained 9lbs. I am at 156lbs (started at 325) and have been there give or take a few lbs for several months. I would ultimately love to reach my goal weight of 135 but at this point I don't think that is going to happen.  I would love the information on the reboot and you absolutely can post the pics. Thank you!

Susan W - 6 Month Update*

I am WONDERFUL!!!!!!! I'm down to 231lbs (about 87 lbs lost) and I'm in an 18/20.

The only problem I have is that I'm still burping when I eat. I know it's because of the displacement of the air in my stomach. I'll live with it happily. My incisions are healed and they look good.

My neighbor took a photo the other day and she said that I look better in jeans that fit me and not the baggy ones I've been hiding behind. I know it's a psychological thing that I have to see myself as I really am and not the fat me. I'll send you a before and a now picture.

I'm so happy that my husband and I agreed that it was the best thing for me!

Joseph and Brittany B - 6 Month Update*

Joseph: I feel I've been doing great. I now weigh 312 lbs and I've lost around 117 lbs give or take. I can't remember if I weighed 424 or 429 at surgery date.

Everything else has been good and I'm so appreciative of everyone's help in getting my life back and losing weight.

I hope with continued efforts and strong determination I can reach 225lbs which was about my high school weight of 212 lbs.

We needed these surgeries so bad so we could be here for our kids and each other. Thank you to everyone for giving our lives back.

Joseph: This is pre surgery and 2 weeks ago photo. Down 117 lbs.

Brittany: Brittany pre surgery and two weeks ago. She is down 72 lbs.

Monica D - 1 Year Update*

Hi JoAnne... Thanks for checking on me. All is good. 
I had my annual check up last month and my doc ran an extensive blood work and a colonoscopy to make sure everything was ok since my 83.2lb weight lost (and hope don't ever gain again). 
 
For the last 3 months I started to adjust my food intake so I don't keep loosing so much weight. I don't look good under 135-140lb. It's kind of trial and error and learning the correct amount of food to just maintain the goal weight.
 
Thank you!

Hi Joanne,
I am well. I have been able to stay within the 185-195lbs.

I wish I could get down to 160 but it just hasn't been possible for me.

I feel great about the changes and the only thing I wish I would have done differently was get the surgery a lot sooner.

Thank you!

Tammy O - 4 Year Update*

I am definitely done losing from the initial surgery. Lost all I wanted in a few short months - Total lost was 50 lbs.

Unfortunately I've gained a few pounds back. About 8-10 but it fluctuates. 

Would love to learn about pouch resetting and maybe getting rid of those 8lbs again. I will send a picture or two tomorrow.

 

So I don't seem to have any very recent full body pics. I'll send a few that might do:

Before pic was one week before my surgery.

 

The recent ones are from:

Chicago 60 mile Breast Cancer Walk 

Climbed Half Dome 

Santa Cruz Wharf to Wharf 10K Race

 

Thanks!

Hi JoAnne. I am around 145 right now. I go between that and 156 or so.The before picture is my day of surgery. The others are my heaviest weight.Here are some current ones too.I did it specifically due to my knee injury and the strain it caused on it. It was the best decision I have ever made. I had a wonderful experience.Thank you!

Hi Joanne! This is the best I've ever felt in my almost 40 years of life! I've never known what it was like to be thin because I had been overweight all my life and it feels amazing! I'm in car sales now at a huge dealership. I went to a water park with my kids and went on every slide and ride I could get on and loved seeing the joy in my babies faces. The only regret I have is that I didn't do it sooner. I'm so grateful for how helpful y'all were. I started at 500 pounds and I now weigh 190 pounds, and I'm living my best life! Thank you for everything.

Sabrina K - 6 Month Update*

Hey JoAnne! All is very well!! I'm loving my progress. As of this morning, I have officially lost 72lbs. I'm at a weight now that I honestly never remember being at. Anxiously waiting and trying to get even more off. It's so crazy how amazing losing just a little bit of weight can make you feel. I feel so much better. I Was able to take a vacation with my family this summer and I just honestly and truly enjoyed this vacation for the first time- never out of breath, could handle the heat better. It was just amazing. I've been taking my vitamins daily and I'm lucky to have a close friend that owns an IV bar so I've been able to get a few of their vitamin IVs as well. It's still a learning process on some things I can or can't eat and I'm still having to work back up my strength (I need to exercise more). But overall, everything is GREAT! I would do it all over again 1,000 times- just wish I could have done it sooner.The left was at Christmas and the right is when we were on our vacation for July 4th. Everyone tells me they can see how happy I am on my smile now. But it's because I am. I truly feel like a new person. And thank y'all for changing my life! Have a blessed day!
