3 months post op! Doing great! Pics too.
So yesturday I was 3 months post op, I am feeling pretty good. I have days where I struggle, but for the most part I got this whole thing figured out.
I am down a total of 126 lbs, I was 193 lbs when I weighed in this morning, that total includeds everything I lost pre-sleeve with my band. I was 236 lbs when I got my sleeve, so I have lost 43 lbs since being sleeved. I am 33 lbs from goal.
This is me before my band surgery, I was already down about 20 lbs, snug size 28 and 3/4xl shirts -

This was a few days ago, 194, size 14 pants and an xl or large top depending on the store -

Way to Go! You look great! And like you 3 months out, I felt good and things have gotten even easier since then...and I acutally enjoy the food I eat now, my capacity really changed as well, but it is a good thing because I had such tight restriction in the first 3 months, now I feel pretty normal, but it is still small portions....
Wow...that is wonderful! Good job! So... you like your sleeve better than the band????
You are doing awesome - Congrats!

Way to go! You are doing an amazing job.
I have 31 to go, but you're losing quicker so you'll probably beat me. But we'll both make it, kiddo, see if we don't.
How are you feeling this afternoon?

I took some Dayquil and I am feeling *almost* normal, good thing too b/c I had two loads of diapers to wash and my kitchen was a mess LOL The one good thing about my youngest son getting speech threapy is that I have to have the house clean when she gets here, so it motivates me to get off my butt even when I don't want to.
