as the title states this morning I hit a total loss of 160lbs
little bit about me, I tipped the scales at 428lbs, the biggest I have ever been, I was unhealthy and unhappy, my partner and I had lost our 5th child and I fell into a very dark place and didn't know how to get out, I decided to look into weighloss surgery and was advised about the sleeve gastrectomy. I had my surgery this year on March 18th and ill be 9 months out this coming 18th of December. Im down a total of 160lbs, from 428lbs to 268lbs, from a UK size 32/34 to a UK size 18/20, I still want to loose another 50-90lbs which I no I can do. Having this surgery saved my life.

Great work!! You look amazing!! Your story is similar to mine. I started out at 400 and have lost 142 lbs through diet changes. If you'd like a new MFP friend feel free to send a request. I'd love to have friends that started out at or around the same place I did.0
