4 Month Sleeve-aversary Today!!!

My surgery was April 18th. I had my check up yesterday and I am down 57 pounds! I hit Onderland on Tuesday and it feels GREAT!!! I bough new jeans in a size 14, tops in a medium and I can finally shop in regular stores. It feels wonderful to only go to Lane Bryant for their bras. lol.

My hair is falling out so instead of freaking out about it I cut it off into a cute bob and donated 12 inches to Locks of Love. It feels so wonderful to be getting my life back. Amazing what a difference this sleeve and hard work has made. :lol:

I guess I am not noticing the weight loss as much as other people are because everyone is telling me how great I look and how they dont recognise me. What a great feeling.

That's really great! Congrats! I can't wait until I'm 57 lbs down! That is so awesome! Keep up the amazing work!:D

That is so great congratulations!!! I love that you cut your hair. I was going to wait till my one year surgiversery to cut mine so it could be a big transformation makeover, but you might have the right idea. I just wanted to mention a place call brastop.com. I love it, its where I get all my bras. Way to go on Onderland as well.

That's awesome! I don't think I could cut my hair off like that, lol. I am just so impressed. Keep it up!

CONGRATS!!!! :)
