Hello all,

It's been awhile. I lurk from time to time on my phone but I am not on here as much as I once was. Life and work is hectic but all around enjoyable. In the last 16 months of my life I have grown so much as a person in my personal life and also in my career. In the 16 months since my surgery and I am still loving my decision. I feel that with my weight loss I have been able to have the energy and confidence to accomplish all these changes in my life. In the last 4 months I have:

Reached and bypassed goal #2 of 140. I am currently at 135 and have even gotten as low as 133!

I weigh less than my husband and have and can wear his size 32 jeans! (I have not been able to do this since 2000)

Fit and successfully wear a SIZE 6 pencil skirt!! See picture below!!!!

**All of this WITHOUT a workout routine! Thank you SLEEVE!**

OMG. You look awesome. I haven't had my surgery yet, I am hoping for a date in early January so I am wishing, hoping and praying to look as good as you when I am 16 months out.
