    Pouch size?

    Chinese food

    I eat it about once a month and have since 6 weeks post op- so 9 months. I have had no problems and love it!

    "Hair" Today, Gone Tomorrow...

    I'm 10 months out- and I have done the same thing. I will lose hair and then stop and then lose and stop.
  6. The lady when I changed my last name said whats your weight honey- I think it's a bit high (oh thank you sweet DMV lady)! I had it at 185(a good 60 plus pounds low). I got to tell her 150 and she laughed and said I would have never guessed that high! Oh you sweet sweet soul!
  7. Didn't Houston get one of the new offices like DFW and Austin- you can make appointments and sign in online! Sooo much better!
  8. I got a new one when I got married in July. I look soooo much better and happier.

    Did you keep your surgery a secret?

    My husband, parents and in laws and one friend are the only people I told- however- my mom assumed my family only comment meant extended family so she told quite a few family members. All in all it's worked well.

    Any vegetarian sleevers?

    I am bad and don't track as often as I should, but I made a pot of pinto beans yesterday. I was able to eat 1 cup (I'm almost 10 months out). 245 calories 15.4g of protein. Not too shabby.

    Skinny jeans

    I wear BKE (the Buckle's store brand) Peyton Skinnies- and they look awesome. Key with jeans is buying good quality denim and not paper thin. I'm in a 28 or 29 depending on the cut (I wear the 28 in the slim boot and 29 in skinny). I actually went in expecting to hate skinny jeans, but I loved them. I'm super short (4'11), but I have a 30 inch inseam- so basically over 1/2 my height is from floor to crotch! I also am an hourglass. The girls at the buckle spent 2 hours picking out outfits for me that were age appropriate (28) and lifestyle appropriate (I'm a SAHM who volunteers a lot).

    PLEASE tell me my boobs will shrink

    I'm the oddball. Mine have managed to get a little perkier- they are still huge (36G). I still need a lift, but I will have implants done at that same time. I really think this is one of those genetics things- it depends on how your family is and if the girls are a side effect of weight gain or just a matter of genes. Every single woman on both sides of my family (my mom excluded because she had a double mastectomy)- is at least a DDD. It doesn't matter if you're a size 0 or 26 in my family.
  18. I assumed at 145ish I would be a 12! It's crazy how sizing has changed. It took me 9 months and a couple days to get to where I am now. I still want to lose maybe 10-15lbs. 130 was my goal-145 is my surgeons. It's weird to think I can wear a size 8' date=' but one pound ago I was still obese! I'm pretty even now, but the last 20ish pounds I gained before thinking about surgery wound up in my belly (UGH). I've still kept my boobs, too and my hips aren't going anywhere. Here's a pic taken last week and one taken a year ago on the same date
  19. We have almost identical stats starting . I claim to be 4'11- but I'm probably closer to 4'10- and I was 248 starting out . Just wanted to say good luck to a fellow shortie- and you can totally lose the 100lbs! I'm at 101lbs lost- at 147.8 I'm wearing an 8 solidly and medium or small tops! Good luck!!!!!
  20. Mine is about the same- AND I bought it a couple weeks ago .

    Labor Day Challenge

    Before and After Pics

    Now that I am smaller- they are changing more quickly. I bought shorts in July and they look frumpy and are falling off of my now. But- I'm also really short so 5lbs makes a bigger impact on someone smaller size wise and height wise
