Misslady,
Thank you for the compliment. And no i dont have any problems with skin, i have two children that were delivered by c-section so i always had a little bump in the stomach area. When i put on my undergarments it conceals it anyway. And yes my husband likes the fact that my thickness is still in the right places, lol.

I was sleeved on November 13th and i've lost a total of 22 pounds. Today makes the end of week 4 for me. i think i'm at a stall because that's how much i weighed in at 2 weeks ago at my second dr's visit. What i notice is i'm losing inches because my clothes are fitting a lot looser. I'm just going to stay focused and stay off the scale. I've been back in the gym since the 6th day after my surgery and i'm able to do the elipitical for 30mins at a resistance of 8 and incline of 10 3-5 days a week. I thank god i had no complications and have never thrown up or had the urge too. Sometimes i question if my surgery was actually done because it went so well, but reality kicks in when after taking 2-3 bites of something i'm sooooo full, lol.

My dr told me to start walking immediately after my surgery. He said I could use the treadmill, stair master and bike like 3days after. No weights til a month and a half. It gets rid if the gas and swelling quickly.

Yes muscle weighs more than fat. That was my problem before I started my process, I was lifting and the scale was going up and my clothes were getn bigger. BTW....... You look great!

Started my pre-op diet today! This is gonna be something else. I can only have my opti-fast shakes(5) a day, Water , crystal light, and sugar free Jello. i need to lose 18 pounds before my surgery, which is Nov 13. This is gonna be a challenge

@ Tatylish... Your surgery is the day after your bday, wow what a great gift to yourself. Well I'm glad I'll be able to Celebrate one last wild time. I'm ready too, this has been an experience and I'm sooooo excited as well as nervous, but I know it's gonna be so worth it. Bday oct 28, diet starts oct 30, surgery nov 13. It's oooooon
