7 months post op

So I am one month late. I wanted to update after 6 months but life just got too busy and the time went by. Anyways here I am 85 lbs down and only 15 more pounds until goal. I am really noticing the lose skin now but its really not that bad and a good trade off for how healthy I feel. I am now working out at the gym a couple times a week. Now I am starting to think about what maintenance will be like....can I do it ?? Its kinda scary to think about the scale not going down anymore.
I am thrilled with my new lifestyle I have changed is so many ways. People I work with are more receptive to my ideas as well as my confidence is very evident to them. In general people in public are more friendly they are talking to me in stores, restaurants, gas stations ect., again likely cuz I am more confident about myself. I am making new friends and enjoying getting out for social events.
In summary I love my Sleeve...I will likely post another update when I reach goal !!!
Thanks to all my OH friends for your support.

Just a quick update.....I am now almost 3 months post-op VSG and down 57lbs. I now weigh 195lbs down from 252. Here are the things that have changed:
- I will never see a "2" in front of the number on the scale again...Whoo Hoo for Onederland
- None of my pants fit me anymore...I had to go buy new dress pants size 13 and new jeans size 14. I can still wear some of the tops but they are just bigger
- I bough a new Jacket size Large at Ricky's
- I have said goodbye to Additionelle and Penningtons 4ever
- I can cross my legs with no problems
- I can tie my shoes up without suffocating myself
- I can shave with ease :)
- I can wear high heals again without being in pain
- I can go up flights of stair without losing my breath
- My hubby cant keep his hands off me
- I finally posted an update on my Facebook Page and announced my weight loss to everyone !!!
I am so happy with my new lifestyle...honestly this is a lot easier than I imagined it would be. When I am full I stop eating. I am always satisfied and not depriving myself from regular food. No Regrets Here.....Love my sleeve!!!
