I’ve lost 160 pounds with the help of gastric sleeve, lifestyle changes and being active! I’ve started my running girl era and focused on being healthy, keeping the weight off and maybe losing a little more along the way! And I’m a dog mom!
Long run day for me! 6 miles and it took everything in me to do it but I did! Here is to kicking butt on a Monday! #runday #rungirlies #longrunday

The balance sometimes between constipation and laxatives is a very thin line! I just want to be regular! #bariatric #wls #vsgcommunity #bariatriclife

9 month post-op check-up today and my surgery team is very happy with progress. We talked about my hunger coming back more and skin irritation from loose skin. All very normal. Still 23 pounds to go so I have some work to do! #bariatric #wls #bariatriccommunity

The body dysmorphia after losing over 150 pounds is crazy some day. Like I look at myself and still see the the over 300 pound person staring in the mirror. Ugh!!! #bariatric #weightloss #wls #weightlossjourney #bodydysmorphia

It’s crazy how some days I will crave something that I haven’t had in over a year out of the blue but it doesn’t last. Like for some reason I was craving icing. Like of all the sweet things I want to eat icing??? #batiatric #wls #weightlossjourney

One thing I wasn’t prepared for when I had weightloss surgery was the constipation and inability to go the bathroom. I’m on a regimen of Miralax 2x a day and senikot every day. But… hey I actually 💩 every day now! #bariatric #wls #constipationrelief #thisisreallife

After having weightloss surgery… everyone thinks it is so easy to lose and keep weight off. But the struggles never stop. Food noise comes back. Cravings don’t disappear. And sometimes the thought of having to meal prep for the week is more than I can handle. #bariatric #wls #weightlossstruggles
