    141, no surgery, just eating right, weight lifting and some cardio...not even that much, I actually maybe only run for 15-20 minutes a week at most, and have went 2 years without running at all.

    Pictures can be seen on my blog! www.learning-right.blogspot.ca

    This was a big worry i had in the beginning. From what i've read a big, big part of it is genetics. Some people have it bad, some none at all. For me, I have very little loose skin. Just a little bit on my upper thighs. People can only see it is i wear a bikini or very short shorts. Nowhere else, most people dont even believe that i was ever overweight.

    Pics are on my profiles, but I went from 382 to 218 (164 lost).... Pushed my self a little to hard to get there, and lived a pretty unhealthy lifestyle of trying to beat the scale and keep losing weight. Worked through that and got back up to 240, and now happy healthy and trying to maintain and put on muscle with a lot of lifting.

    I have lost 147 with 3 more to go. No surgery just lifting and cardio and proper nutrition. About 1 year and 9 months.

    See my profile pics for before and afters. Proper nutrition is the key - you will need to make permanent changes that you presumably didn't make after the bariactric surgery.

    You can do it! Best of luck.

    Anyone can feel free to add me for mutual support.

    Another 18 away but pretty close.



    Wow, your arms look amazing. What did you do to tone up your arms like that? I would love to have my arms look that way this time next year.

    It took me less than 2 years to lose 202 pounds and have managed to maintain that for a couple of months now. I still want to lose another 7 pounds and then maintain a few pounds above that when eating to more.

    154 pounds of that was by the end of the first year.
