  1. I am so happy for you! Have a wonderful active life with your family.
  2. I also weigh every Tuesday and for the first year I also recorded my measurements as well. Now that I'm a year out and at goal I am still weighing on Tuesdays but only posting the measurements monthly. I hope this will keep me on track.
  3. wow you are doing great! Be proud of what you have accomplished !
  4. I'm 63 at goal lots of loose skin, no amount of exercising is going to get rid of. Getting a tummy tuck this spring!
  5. I also have gotten rid of 4 sizes of clothes. Yesterday while cleaning out my drawers I found a bunch of granny panties and big nighties. I don't know why I was hanging on to these?? But they are leaving the house in the morning. I think I'll go get some more sexy ones for my upcoming 40th anniversary trip. Make my hubby one happy man!
  6. I have fine, thin hair it started falling out around month 4 and stopped about month 11 when I upped my calories from 800 to 1,100-1,200 a day. I started taking Biotin before my sleeve and have always gotten my Protein in. It's coming in curlier than before, I don't think it will ever be what it was before the sleeve. I think that's a small price to pay for being thin and healthy!
  7. You are looking great! Keep up the great work!
  8. I am a year out and I have 3 small stones. They think I had 2 other that have passed. Like you I really hasn't had much pain. Drink lots of water, it will help them pass. Make sure you get your B-12 in everyday.
  9. I would go get a few consults with plastic surgeons, they are usually free. They can give you some kind of idea what would be best for you also if your insurance would pay for some of it. Good luck to you.
  10. I plan on having my tummy tuck the end of May in MI. I have two friends who have had TT and one has pucker on her back side. It doesn't look good, my doctor said it was shabby work from a lazy doctor. My other friends incisions are very uneven in the back. On side is much high than the other. I am working with my doctor so these don't happen to me. Good luck with your TT.
  11. You're doing beautifully! Congrats!
  12. I had my sleeve last Jan 9. I am at goal having lost 81lbs. I went from a size 16/18 to an 8! I am working on maintaining.
  13. Eating to fast, to many carbs, not enough water and I need to exercise more!
  14. I went thru the same thing last week when I did some side by sides. I really don't remember looking that bad and It was only 1 year ago! You're lookin beautiful now.
  15. You look wonderful! Congratulations!
  16. Thanks for inviting me into this group. What a good idea. Sometimes (mostly) I just don't relate to a lot of the posting from the 20-30 year olds. I have been sleeved since Jan 9, 13. I reached my goal in Dec losing 81 lbs!! Now I'm working at keeping it off. Please feel free to ask me any ?'s.
