Almost a Hundred Pounds of Weight Loss.

Sleeve Gastrectomy Weight Loss
Sleeve Gastrectomy Weight Loss

Almost 100 lbs of weight lost. From my highest weight till about a week ago. The bulk of the loss, of course, has been this year. In January, when I decided to get the sleeve gastrectomy, I was 239 lbs. I think the morning of the surgery (on April 7th), I was 217 lbs (-22 lbs in the 3 months it took to get clearance).

I've been stuck around 162 +/- 2lbs for a couple of weeks, which prompted me to look into adding *gulp* exercise to my life. Egads. I'm also starting to feel like I have that slumped "extreme-weight-loss" look. You know what I mean? After years of carrying so much extra weight, your posture gets all messed up.

Me.
The saggy skin doesn't bother me too much, but if there's something that I can sorta do about it, I feel like I should. So, I need to bulk up a bit to fill in the skin with something other than fat. OH SWEET LORD, I'm totally lying, I forgot about the turkey neck. Oh gahd... the turkey neck...

It's so annoying because that wrinkly bastard is what's aging me. YOU SONOFABITCH TURKEY NECK!!! YOU DIE! YOU DIE AND YOU GO TO HELL!!!!!
