Weight Loss Surgery as a Jumping Off Point

Reddit user lvance2 shared her weight loss journey with the world. She underwent gastric bypass surgery in 2016, achieving a weight loss of 95 lbs. Her current weight is 202 lbs. However, she emphasizes that weight loss surgery is not a miracle cure, but a jumping off point. It is still up to the individual to put in the work to maintain their weight loss.

Empowerment and Confidence

Lvance2 stated how she now feels empowered and more confident with her body. Her new weight has made it easier for her to buy clothes, participate in physical activities, and take on any challenge. Her face and body have undergone a transformation, making her look much younger and highlighting her cheekbones and collarbones.

The Downside of Weight Loss Surgery

While weight loss surgery has helped lvance2 achieve her weight loss goals, she still had to deal with some loose skin. She explains that it has not been too terrible, but it is something that some individuals might have to face, particularly in the midsection. It remains to be seen if the problem will worsen as she gets closer to her goal weight.

Positive Support from the Reddit Community

Lvance2 received a lot of positive support from the Reddit community for her successful weight loss journey. Many Redditors complimented her on her stunning transformation and congratulated her on her progress. Some even asked her about the loose skin issue and if she recommends weight loss surgery to others.

Try It Out for Yourself

Lvance2's story is proof that weight loss surgery, when done correctly, can lead to impressive weight loss results. However, it's important to remember that weight loss surgery is not for everyone. Each individual's weight loss journey is unique and can be achieved through a variety of methods. So, don't be afraid to try things out to find what works best for you.
