Today I celebrate officially losing 165 pounds in 10 months! I am SO grateful I had the courage to seek the tool of weight loss surgery (gastric sleeve) and have cultivated a passion for fitness and ketogenic eating these last ten months. I cannot believe how much my life has changed. I never EVER thought I'd be posting here in success stories. But, size 24 to size 4, 305 pounds to 140 pounds (5'9) here I am. I'm just SO excited, and hope you'll celebrate with me!
I've reached my best self- at 30! Can't wait to see what the future holds!

    Congrats!! impressive results!! Would you mind posting about your bariatric surgery experience and outlining how it was in Mexico? Pos/neg elements?

    Also saw you are now doing coaching, good luck, how is that going?

    This is so awesome! Great job for taking back your health! Fantastic!

    If u dont mind me asking...how many calories a day do you consume after surgery?

    Also, so sorry about the rudeness above! You are an inspiration!

    You've done amazing! I'm nearly one year post-op and approaching 140 pounds lost-- I know first hand the work that you've put in.

    I'm incredibly jealous of your fabulous waist! I can see and feel some serious abs developing but I look like I did as teenager...a prepubescent boy!

    Wow! you look amazing and what an incredibly tiny waist you have, like a teenager's! Look fabulous!

    I agree with everyone you do look amazing, congratulation. So I have a question and if you feel its too personal I get that you may not want to answer it, I am wondering about loosing all that weight and the extra skin issues. What have you been able to do about it? I only ask because I am working on loosing weight and I am concerned about my stomach area just curious if you were able to do something to help with that?
