7th month sleeve anniversary today. Made the best decision to follow my surgeons advice and get the sleeve rather than the band, which is what I went in looking for initially. Found this wonderful support site after decision to get sleeved. My after picture was taken late February - 1 1/2 months ago. Hit my personal goal in February. Down now to a size 4 or 6 depending upon clothing maker.

I love my sleeve. No regrets.

you look fabulous -- congratulations and big hugs!

Thanks everyone for your posts. I am addicted to each one of you as you are my lifelines. Learn so much here, from experienced and newbie sleevers. You encourage me to keep on track.

Wanted to say I am humbled by the strength shown in a battle to overcome our shared issue. Hugs to you!

So inspiring!!! Congrats on your success!

You look wonderful!!! So happy that your doc talked to you into this option. I too was wanting the band but after talking to my doc and visiting this site I too decided this was the beat option! Keep up the great work and let us know how maintenance goes!

You look fantabulous! Kudos to you!!!!!
