    Default Weight loss update, before & after pics

    OK, y'all probably remember this thread about my gastric bypass surgery https://www.ar-15.co/threads/138641-...-through-alive!

    Finally got around to some before & after pics. Started at 332, currently down to 195. Loss is at 137lbs so far and holding. Went from 4x/5x shirts and 56 jeans to 1x shirts and 38 jeans. Still have some squishiness, another 20-25 lbs. would suit me just fine. But I'm damn happy to be where I am now!

    For perspective, pick up two 60lb. bags of Quikrete, with three 5lb. bags of sugar on top, that's 135 lbs. Carry that around a little, then think about having that weight permanently attached to you 24/7/365. Walking, up & down stairs, up and down ladders, sleeping, everything you do, all the time. Large amount of suck there, I'm glad it's gone!

    Still need a haircut though.....not getting any younger or prettier either.

    Wow, it's like half of you is gone.
    Congratulations on your success. Hopefully, your transformation allows you to do more of the things you always wanted to in life.
    Math is tough. Let's go shopping!

    Almost half. I've lost more than my wife weighs total. But she's still around.....

    Looking good brother. I'll bet you feel a whole lot better too. Just make sure you stay healthy too.

    Your pics are starting to motive me to get off my fat @$$ and drop this weight I've put on over the last 10 years.

    BTW, did you notice that all of your shirts are plaid?

    ETA: changing your appearance so drastically is perfect for a self-styled Witness Protection Program.

    Wow congrats! Any advice / regrets / thoughts to share? The mental side of this has to be even bigger than the physical side.

    Yes, I'm a plaid kinda guy. Plaid disguises bulges ya know. I won't wear Harley t-shirts anymore, I'm not gonna give them free advertising.

    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
