December Sleevers - Unite!



Recommended Posts

I'm hoping and praying for a December date! Insurance requirements sure can be a headache.

I totally understand. I did the 6 month "weight management" routine. I actually started the journey last January but found out that surgeon had only done 5 sleeves. Had to start all over with a new surgeon, new testing and new insurance requirements. I hope you can have a December surgery too.

Can't stop thinking about it.. planning... dreaming. Started a couple of projects to distract myself. Trying not to get ahead of the process. Today I thought about tossing all my big fat clothes, then laughed... uh... what am I supposed to wear for the next 48 days?!

CurvyJ, I thought about doing the same clothing purge and I figured out a way not to end up naked. Bag up only the summer clothes! (this only works if you live in a cold state) All my crop and knee length pants, into the bag! Felt SO good!!!

Good morning all... 1 year ago I was just like you all!!! I had my surgery dec 8th 2011. My start weight was 327, the day of surgery I was 294. Today I am 178!!! It is truly amazing. Advice for you... Take a picture of yourself the night before surgery or the day of. Because in a years time... You will not believe the difference! It is truly a transformation!!! Good luck, I wish you all the best!

Lillymay, OMG! You look like a totally different person. I have let people take pictures of me this year (never in the past) so I have some to compare. Do you feel like your new picture or are you still shocked?

I started going to the Thrift Stores in my area this weekend. They are 50% off certain colored tags on Saturday and Sunday. I picked up a few things that were just a size or two smaller that I couldn't wait to slide into... And I figure, what harm could it do? I've paid MAYBE 20, and I got about 7 really cute shirts! Some with the tags still on them. :-)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
