  1. Hi all! My name is Kay and I am excited to join this group! My surgery date was January 6, 2011. In 5 months I have lost 53 lbs, with 28 left to go! You are right, the closer to goal, the slower the weight seems to come off. But it is still coming off, so that is a good thing. Just this past week, I went shopping for a few new clothes. I can wear mostly a 10 in pants, but I found a couple of 8s that fit. I am wearing a small in tops. A SMALL!! Never in my life did I think I could wear a small. There's only one size left after that, an extra small. Wow. I love my sleeve and I know it was the best thing I ever did for myself!
  2. Could I get one as well? Thanks so much! kay.coleman@sourcenetsolutions.com
  3. I just wanted to say hello and finally post something. I have been reading this board for awhile but have never posted anything. I wanted to tell everyone that this board has been soooo helpful in answering all of my questions and helping me understand everything! I was sleeved January 6 by Dr. John Mason here in Texas, so it's been 2 whole weeks and I am feeling great! Thanks again to all!!
  4. Hi, I've been a member for a while but this is my first time posting. I was sleeved 2 weeks ago. I was just wondering if anyone knows how many pounds it takes to go down a size, or is this dependent on your height? I currently wear a size 18 and I am 5' 2" and my pants are getting loose, but I have not lost enough to be in a 16. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
