I'm nearly where you are...4 months and 3 weeks out. I've lost 65 pounds, and fail to see any difference except my face is a little less fat and my bras are too big. My clothes are now 1-2 sizes smaller, but like you I can't for the life of me figure out what's different, even though I take my measurements every 20 pounds and have seen a huge loss. My problem areas are my thighs and lower stomach, and they are only a size down, and are shrinking at a far slower rate. And it doesn't help that I hit a stall a couple of weeks ago. When I see my family every couple of months I get amazement and compliments, though. I keep a positive attitude and tell myself that I'm doing well (and when I need an extra boost I remember that my stomach doesn't touch my steering wheel anymore, LOL).

Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am getting sleeved on Monday 4/23 and was looking specifically for someone who is a year out to share their story. Thank you! When I read realistic stories like yours, it strengthens my resolve for a journey I expect to be both challenging and exhilarating. Continued good luck to you (and your children are ADORABLE!)
