  1. I'm almost 4 months out, I am down 60 pounds and I carry most of my weight in my belly. I started in a size 26 and I'm in a 22. I still have a belly :( but it is a smaller belly :) Overall people can tell I'm smaller and my old shirts fit different. It will happen.

  2. Well today makes 3 months and I am down to 387.4. Was hoping I would be further but I am happy with my progress. My Vitamin D was low so the dr gave me a a script. Also some my sugars and cholesterol were high. Not really sure why but just to be safe going to go back to basics and really watch what I eat. Need to get back into the habit of tracking my food and upping my Water. I also fell off the gym wagon and I have to get back on. Lots of added stress and drama at the moment so the gym will do me good. Hoping I can have a vast improvement by my next check up.


  3. I had a c-section about 7 years ago and was sleeved jan 17th. Because my baby was so big my poor tummy was stretched to the max. I have accepted that I will have to have a Tummy Tuck. I have had 3 kids and they got bigger each time. My first 2 were natural (6 pounds and 9 pounds) my last and c-section was 11pounds! So my tummy is a mess and I'm 31. I expect it to suck up some but not like I would want it. So under the knife for me.


  4. Back in the day I was 5'10 and weighed 175 and that's my goal now too. I wasn't heavy but had a nice shape and it looked good on my build. I did have a little tummy so I could have lost some of that but I say shoot for 175 and see how you feel at that point you can always adjust from there and drop more. Good luck!


  5. My dr said the average weight lost between sleeves and bypass averages out about the same. The difference is the rate it is lost at. I know someone who had bypass and list 80 pounds quick and gained all and then some back. It's about discipline with your food choices and exercise. She can still only eat small volume but is making poor food choices as she hasn't list and just maintains her current weight.


  6. I feel your pain. I feel like a can if biscuits in smaller clothes. But the way my bigger clothes fit looks really bad on me so I wear the smaller clothes. The only baggy thing I have that doesn't look like I was swallowed by fabric is my basketball shorts and t shirts. My jeans look like I have an overly full diaper on and my other tips just hang.
