Hey everyone! Just started this thread for the post op octosleevers of 2012. I had my surgery yesterday and all is well. Gas pain is terrible but I've been walking around. Full fluid dinner tonight. Sippin on my oh, cream soup and pudding. They saline locked my IV, catheter is out and I love walking around. Nausea and pain are so far under control. I'm giving myself 3 hours to finish this meal

Today was my one year surgeriversary!! Would do it again in a heartbeat! I've lost 80 pounds and went from a size 14/16 to a size 4. I feel so much better and healthier than I did a year ago. It's nice not to ache every day and to be able to be more active and keep up with my little one. I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!

1 year out on yesterday (10/25) weighing 164!!! Yay me!!! For a total loss of 123! Couldn't be happier!!

October 24th was my 1 year surgiversary! Lost 92 pounds and feel fantastic! Went from barely squeezing into a size 18 to fitting into a size 1 with some wiggle room! I went to my 20 year high school reunion and it was amazing, I looked and felt better than I did in high school. I love my sleeve, and I LOVE the fact I have saved my life! Hope you all are doing just as fantastic!!!!

Hey guys.. Posting this but dont know if any of the Oct 2012'ers even come here these days! Wow...how were your holidays? i'm up about 8 lbs. . Plan on ordering unjury and getting back on track. Those sweet treats sure do go down easy. Ugh. Wish i was below 200 by now, but hope with dedication and not being complacent i will make it eventually.

All the best for a happy Healthy 2014!!

LDallas. Hang in there. I have my moments. I went on a seven day strict diet a couple of months ago to get myself back on track. I am at goal and sometimes I don't eat as I should but for the most part I am doing well. Best of luck in 2014.

Hey all. Havent been here in forever. But I've gotten some emails about other updates and figured I'd swing by.

I had my surgery 10/2/12. My starting weight was 322lbs, size 24 and 4x shirts. Bra size was 48F.

As of this morning I'm at 178 lbs, size 8/10 pants, shirts L-XL and thats due to chest which is 32E they didnt go very far.

My goal weight is 175, I'm 5'9". Im almost there. I've read and saw everyone seems to be doing great. Keep up the great work

Sithpy thank you for the note! You're doing great!

Haven't been on here in months...i had Surgery 10/9/12. I started at 300..dos I was 267..by end of June I was 185...then I got pregnant! I just had my daughter March 11th..She's perfect. .named her Annabella Faith. Couldn't get pregnant b4 surgery so she's a miracle! I'm now 231 again..but now that everything is getting back to normal...I'm starting my diet again! I'm determined to get down!. It's a little depressing though! But here goes nothing!
