10 pounds UNDER goal!
I am 18 months out from Gastric Sleeve surgery, and have surpassed my goal of weighing 150 pounds by 10 pounds. This morning I weighed 140.6. I have recently started losing again after a several month stall at about 147-149. Not sure what has caused this, other than my psychiatrist put me back on antidepressants and he said that I may lose some weight. Otherwise, I haven't changed my eating habits, and I've actually been quite lazy in the exercise department. It's been very hot and I get weak feeling when I ride any distance, probably because I can't eat much. If I take a Snickers bar with me it helps.
So, officially, I have lost as much weight as I currently weigh. I've lost 140 pounds, and I weigh 140 pounds. This is a miracle. I NEVER imagined I'd be this successful. And with such little effort on my part. I actually bought a pair of size 4 pants (I'm wearing them in the picture), and if I could get rid of the excess skin on my lower belly, I'd have fit into the 2's easily.
I am just so thankful to have been able to have this surgery, and that I've had great results. I'm sure I've added years to my life, and my joints hurt much less.
In other news, I have recently had a mammogram during which they have discovered an oval mass. I am scheduled for more pictures and an ultrasound on Friday next week. I am praying for good news.
Thanks for tuning in, I'll keep you all posted about any further weight loss.

Before the gastric sleeve gastrectomy surgery, I was suffering from high cholesterol, sleep apnea, diabetes and high blood pressure. And, my weight was damaging my knees also. But now, after the surgery, I have been free of all these ailments. Thanks to you.
