  2. I wear a 34 waist pants now. I am wearing a large shirt. Now I buy shirts with stripes. But still confused with the pants. Went to buy pants yesterday & for some reason I could not get my mind around I was wearing a 34 inch waist pants. I had to look on my pants I was wearing to verifiy I am wearing a 34 inch waist. But I do not have any problem with underware.
  3. This is great! Keep up the great work.
  4. Good for you! You are right! This Sleeve is the best!
  5. I had my surgery on July 26 2011, and so far have lost 112 pounds.
  6. 101driver you are right. Went through the same thing & it IS great! Congrates!
  7. Walk Walk Walk just like fern said. Also follow your diet. In 6 to 7 months you will be 100 pounds lighter!
  8. Do what you can for 6 months. It will start to slow down after the honeymoon period. But you will still be happy.
  9. July 2011 I was over 290. I knew I was never going to fly again to vacation anywhere unless I drove or bought a extra seat plane seat. Then I had the Sleeve! Now March 2012 at 179 pounds my wife & I will be going to Vegas for our 40th year married in July. With out the sleeve I would not even had thought of this. We have been before but last time the seat was very uncomfortable. I did tell the wife "me going to a buffett was like a eunuch going to a ***** house. The eyes take in the pleasure, but that's all we can do."
  10. Thanks you speak for all of us. By you being aware of our weakness IS a strong tool. It is easier to keep it off now than before. We were out of control. Weight gain will aways be our fear. It's good to have that. It makes us stronger. You story is very real. Thank you again.
  11. Enjoy your health. Most of us have no problems. Most people post on forums to write about a problem. The ones who are fine do not.
  12. Remember guys eyes are attached to there little head. You women know this. So you can go from just one of the guys, to being attractive to us very easy. Why do women spend so much time getting dressed up to go outside? How did Playboy get famous? The articles? So when you change the package wrapping, the guys will notice. Just stating a fact of life.
  13. 7 months later & 108 pounds down. Trying to stay between 180 & 185. Started 290.
  14. It's a common complaint. Look it up People do not understand the surgery. Keep it to yourself until you lose weight & you are asked about your weight loss.
  15. Good advice here. Go get the sleeve. I had mine done July 26th 2011. I have lost 108 pounds. I am at 182 right now & trying to stop losing weight. But I enjoy life now.
  16. I remeber your past post & glad you updated us. You did very well on your weight loss. CONGRATS!
  17. To the people that are starting out. This has been great. I had surgery July 26th. On Dec 25 I had lost 100 pounds. I am now 105 pounds lost. I am trying to stop me weight loss at this weight. Started out at 290 now 185. Doctor said I may level off at 180. I am skinny now. For me this has been very easy. No problems. Stalled for about 2 weeks at 205, then started dropping again. I want to thank Dr Clark for giving me my life back. Go & get this done!
  18. It's Dec I had the sleeve done in July. I am down 95 pounds. Feel great look good & no issues. YES! Get this done.
