A couple of great things...

[deedee 5]

I've been busy with out of town guests over the last few days and actually didn't have a chance to jump on my scale and weigh. Well, this morning I stepped on the scale and it read 179, I finally broke out of the 180's!

Also, yesterday we all went shopping and I was actually able to button up some size 12's (a little tight) and actually bought a size 10 dress. Now I know that these things all run very big because I still have 14's in my closet that I can barely get into, but it just makes me so happy to see these awesome results when just a few months ago I was wearing 22's-24's.

Lastly, at jazzercise I had to use my 5 lb weights because I couldn't find 8 or 10 lb ones, and they were so light and easy for me to use. Six weeks ago when I started back, I couldn't even use weights and then I started with 3 lbs. and moved up to 5, which were so hard for me to use at the time.

I LOVE my sleeve!

Deedee, those are several great victories, congratulations! I am sure you will have many more to come.

Thanks Susan, I'm just so excited because although I've read how well people do with their sleeves and have been very pleased with my results, I always had a doubt in my mind that this might not work as well for me. Well, I now weigh less than I have in my adult life and feel like I can work this all the way to goal.

Congratulations Deedee! Your story is amazing and in just such a short time! I'm only on day 6 and can't wait until I am where you are! The sleeve really is amazing! I know it was the right decision for me.

God Bless!

Ha, I love the tiny hinney! Can't wait for all of me to be tiny! Hubbie wants me to be no less then 200 lbs but for me I'm sliding down to 175 if at all possible or less. . . by the way I wear size 12-14 at 200 lbs. . . isn't that wild?????? And I have a tiny hinney then too. . . but at 175??? Wow that will be totally amazing I don't think I've ever been at that weight. . . must have jumped from 150 straight to 200 when I was younger! hehehe. . . congratulations DeeDee! Keep up the wonderful work!
