One Year ago today!

I had my sleeve surgery one year ago today!

It's just been the best year I could imagine. I love not being fat and I have been maintaining at goal for over 6 months.

My last pair of jeans that I bought is a size 6 and the top I bought was a small. I've gone from a 3 X to a SMALL!

I am so glad somebody invented sleeve surgery!:thumbup1::thumbup::biggrin0:

Congrats!!

I am anxious to get to "your stage", but at least now I know I actually have a realistic chance of doing it!

I hope more people learn about the sleeve and have the opportunity to get it. It is an amazing tool!

That is sooooo awesome. We are proud of you and aspire to write the same type of post one day.

Congratulations Daisy! You've done an incredible job with your sleeve. I'm so happy for you!

YAY YAY I can't believe it's been a year already since we met over on lbtalk. It's been a great year, and I know I would not have been as strong without you in my corner. Thank you and many congrats on your fabulous success ! ! !

WOOOOOO HOOOOO Daisy!!

Isn't it fantastic????? A size 6!! AMAZING!!

I'll never see a 6... but my size 12's are getting big!!

WTG Daisy!! proud of you girl!!

A 6????!!!! And from a 3x????!!!! Wow! What an inspiration to all of us! It's great to hear that you've had a good year. It's only been 4 weeks for me, and I'm just beginning to get a little energy back--so it's very encouraging to hear your story. Keep up the great work!

Thank you everyone! I hope everyone reaches their goals and is always as happy as I am with their decision to permanently remove the majority of their stomach.

I really envy all those that are getting sleeved so much earlier in their lives but even at 57 years old, I am thrilled not to spend one more year obese.

Yay Sleeve!

Daisy I am so thrilled for you!!! What a lot to accomplish in a year. Thanks for cheering me on both preop and now. It means a lot to me! Wow, I can't imagine being down 100 lbs in a year, I am going to be dilligent and hopefully soon enough I'll be on your heals!
