Double NSV
Yesterday was 4 weeks PO band to sleeve revision. Today I put on a pair of pants I bought over 2 yrs ago hoping to wear to a special function. Well, since they were like a second skin, and I could not sit with them on, they have hung in the closet all this time.
Today, put them on and they are actually a little big. THEN my first eating out, went to a favorite Mexican food restaurant, where they have the best chips on earth, and when the waiter went to put some down for me, I told him I did not want them.....Now that has never happened.
I had a bowl of refried beans, guac, sour cream, and ate less than 1/2 with a spoon.
YAY me!
So total lost as of yesterday for the past 4 weeks is 22 lbs.
Lap band 3-4-05 starting weight 312 now 190
LBL/BL w/lipo 6-18-08
Arm/Thigh Lift w/lipo 1-07-09
Sometimes losing is really winning!
Woohoo! Keep trying on those clothes! I was scared to try on a lot the first 4-6 weeks and ended up zooming right by several things that I'd wanted to wear!

I did the same thing. I waited about 3 1/2 to 4 weeks but I missed out wearing several things too, they still had the tags on them.
Isn't that a bummer! I was kicking myself!!
