Well better late than never, I had hoped to get this post done by the 10th!




My sleeve is the best gift I ever gave myself. I've lost 75 pounds whi*****ludes pre-surgery weight, 45 since my surgery on January 10th. I was in a tight size 22W jeans in September and now am in a loose size 14. I have more energy than I've ever had and I'm loving life!!
I want to thank all of you who have been here for me when I needed support. You are all wonderful and I feel so lucky to be amongst you!! 

Happy to be on the losers bench!!

     Congratulations, Heidi, on such an impressive loss, and in only 3 months!!!     Thanks so much for sharing your update.  I LOVE reading how everyone is doing post-op because it provides me with so much encouragement that such great results are not completely outside my reach.  Now you are really headed toward "Onderland"!

Best wishes as you continue on your journey...Viv

Ha - thanks! I'm 3 months out Thursday and will be posting something likely this weekend once I've got all my measurements and current pics all set!

I'm torn - sometimes I look in the mirror and am startled to see the person staring back. Other times, I don't even seem to notice a difference. Isn't that weird?

Nope, not weird at all. I'm dealing with the same thing too! The only time I truly see the difference is when I look at the side by side pics. The I'm like  I was HUGE. Just makes me more determined to never ever go back there again!!
