Awesome progress!! You look great! Would you mind sharing your weekly workout regimen? I am heaviest in my stomach and it's worse now after c-section.
I usually do 20-25 minutes either on the elliptical or walking/jogging (I'm going to do a 5k eventually), and then I'll do 3 sets of 10 on the leg press and the leg adductors and abductors. About once or twice a week, I'll do the ab room at Planet Fitness - if I do it more than that, I'm miserable haha. Because the summer's coming up, I'll probably be doing a lot more outdoor activities, like biking outside0 -

Fantastic Job! many people think surgery is one and done, and don't realize that it's too easy to go back to where you started, so they end up going back and wonder what happened.
Congratulations on the lifestyle change and getting to a point where you are comfortable and happy with yourself!
Did you also have surgery to remove excess skin, do you still have it, or was it still elastic enough to shrink back as you lost the weight?0 -
Congratulations and keep up the fantastic work, you look amazing!:happy:0

Congrats on your journey! You have a done a wonderful job. You story brought me to tears as I thought of my daughter. As of now, she is 10 years old and at 141 pounds. In the last few months she has lost weight. She was at 156 at Christmas. As I looked at your pictures, I pictured my lil' girl gaining and gaining. It's scary and I know I have to work with her. Any insights from your experience would be greatly welcomed. Good luck to you!0

Interestingly, I actually just got told by my surgeons that now would be a good time for me to pursue any skin surgeries I wanted. However, I got my surgery in Cincinnati, OH and I live in Detroit, MI, so it's about a 5 hour drive. The surgeons only have recommendations for plastic surgeons in Cincinnati, but they advised me to get any surgeries in Detroit for easier recovery, so I'm still doing a little looking into who's good in the area.
I do not have a bad excess skin problem, but I do want to fix the excess skin I have. My whole family has fairly inelastic skin, and I feel like I will be able to see my progress and be happier with my body once I have.0 -
Congratulations young lady, you have just inspired many people who think they cannot make it happen. Continue to set the example and tell your story, you never know who is out there lurking that just needed this story to get them moving. Keep up the good work.0
