Clothes are loose now, so excited . Started at a size 18 , super tight , should of probably been in a 20. Now I'm in a size 11/12 & those pants are getting loose. So excited to get to one digit sized pants . Almost there !!!! Just had to share Day of surgery , clothes fitting super tight Today 1/4/13- same clothes , shirt is loose. Sweat pants fit the way there suppose to, lol.

Looking great, I've reached that point too & it feels awesome, congrats !!

Glad we understand each other . Thanks for the compliment . May all of us reach our goals for the New Year .

Ok ladies, I'm sure some of you can relate , when our stomachs stuck out as much as our boobs . My stomach still isn't flat , but my boobs stick out past it now, lol. Still can't see what's under that bulging fat, but soon enough I'll be able to see , I'm sure you know what I'm talking about Good luck to you all .

You look fabulous , congrats !!!

Thanks ladies, we will all reach our goals soon , can't wait !! So glad I had this surgery

LusciousGold26- I never asked the dr . I went on them & was fine. I didn't get on any big crazy coasters , just small coasters . I went to Knotts Berry Farms, they don't have too many big ones.

When is it ok to have a drink? I'm 10 wks out. I know every dr has their own opinions . What do you think? How have you done, if you've had it?

You look fabulous . How long did it take after the sleeve. I've lost 43 lbs so for , it's been 10 wks. I'm so excited to get to thin, can't wait!! You look great!!

I know exactly how you feel , I had my surgery back in Sept, 3 hrs away from home & no one went with me, I was all alone too. I was pretty down ,myself , at first , but after the surgery was over , I didn't care. I was too worn out to even realize that no one was there. In a way it was nice not having to deal with anyone fussing over me ,besides the nurses. I then realized I needed that time alone to heal & concentrate on me. I will keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery & like someone else said, your not alone , God is with you

Faith - all that finally stopped , I think it was lack of nutrition . Hope it stops for you soon

Grover Beach here, sleeved 9/26/12

Thanks everyone I will try try try !!!

I'm losing from the top , not from the waist down. What can I do to lose the fat from my thighs?

Yes sweets use to be my weakness , but I haven't had any sweets since the surgery , 6 weeks ago , but I crave it. It's hard , but guess I could do without, idk , maybe just a piece of chocolate here & there , lol

Good to know, thanks

Does anyone eat sugar free candy? Just curious , if the sugar alcohol in the candy counts as grams of sugar? Not sure if I should try it or not? What do you think?

Thanks everyone for your input. Dr. said red meat is just to hard to digest. I was cleared to eat anything now, just no red meat. Maybe it was just his personal opinion. Guess I'll give it a try & see what my sleeve thinks. Thanks again

My dr said no red meat, what did your dr. say?

Sorry to hear that, you are in my prayers , may God heal that stomach, as only He can. I pray you don't have to have another surgery , but if you do, I pray for success & a speedy recovery. Trust in God. Keep your head up
