It's been one year since I got the sleeve. 113 lbs gone! Not only am I healthier, I weigh under 200 lbs, which hasn't happened in 18 years, I can buy clothes in the misses section instead of the plus size! That is what really did it for me. Buying my first pair of pants in the misses. Wow!

I did it! 100 pounds gone! Still amazing to think that in 7 months I've lost 100 lbs. Never could have I did it without having the sleeve. I feel so much better health wise and also look wise.

I have 9 more pounds to go to get under 200 lbs. Thats when it will really hit me. Seeing a 1 to start my weight. Been 18 years since I seen that!

 

6 months since surgery. It's gone by fast! I can't believe the transformation my body has gone through. I have bones protruding! I'm so close to the 100 lbs mark and have lost 37"! I know I could never have done it without the sleeve. The sleeve has changed my life. I am healthier, able to do more, in less pain....and the list goes on.

Going in a few days for my 6th month check up. Hopefully all ok. I know I'm still not getting all my liquids in. Not exercising like I should either. :( But after the move my plan is to get back to doing more. I would love to be able to get out of plus size clothes.

Wow. 3 months have gone by since surgery. Went in for my labs and 3 month check. Looking good. Protien was just a bit down but nothing to worry about. Down 55 pounds since surgery. They said I'm a bit above average but thats ok. I asked what the doctors goal weight for me was. She said 190-210. Was kinda surprised it was that high. But its something I think I'll feel comfortable with.
Having to buy new clothes now. Pants wise I am down 2-3 sizes. At work, everyone keeps saying how good I look. Nice to know it's really noticable. Of course, I notice it also now.
I'm feeling so much better! I can breathe, move...I just need to find time to exerecise though. Schedule is really hard right now. :(

Have picked up a few new clothes. I have gone down almost 4 sizes in pants! Today I bought a t-shirt in XL! From a 4X to XL? Wow! I'll say the XL is a big tight for my liking yet but I was buying it for a bit later when the temps get cooler. Now all I need our new bras so they won't sag so much. LOL

On another note, have been in a bit of a stall these past couple weeks. Weight isn't really changing. :( Trying not to get frustrated...Almost 3 months out...will take measurements again then. Can't wait to see how many more inches gone. :)
