Wow I can touch An area on my leg I couldn't reach before. I look down and my belly does not stick out as much as before I can see my feet!! This is so exciting for me.Do you remember moments like this? Anything funny?

yes but my collar bones were the best. I am sure they were sticking out for a while before I noticed them popping out. I knew they were in me but didn't remember what I looked like with them pronounced

This made me laugh hysterically. My fingers no longer resemble Breakfast sausage links - that was my first "not-so fat" thought.

what's that? is there a bone there? LOL it's been so long I'm afraid of areas I'll find! just kidding but it is weird when you can touch an area that was so hard to reach.

I lost the cushion in my butt... now I have a bony butt. Hurts to sit on the floor & play Barbie's with my grand daughter, so I sit on a pillow! But at least I can get on the floor & back up now! Yay for NSV's!!!!

I'm starting to find my ribs and my hip bones. They are still covered in a thick layer of fat but at least they are detectable now!

Pelvic Bone for me and being able to prop my foot up on my dresser and put my socks on without gasping for air

Silly as it sounds, I stared at my shoulders for a good ten minutes the other day. They're better defined now and it when I wear a shirt it doesn't look like I shoved pillows up my sleeves.

I stood in the shower today washing my legs and i couldn't get over my thighs...or lack thereof. I can't remember the last time I though my thighs looked good!

i'm still preop, but i thought i'd share my goal: pick up a pencil off the floor w/o that move...you know the one, the sitting splits or the wobble to the left so i can bend far enough to pick it up...yeah...that's my goal. I don't have a goal weight, I just want to pick up a pencil.

Yes it's great being able to bend overand tie my shoes without coming up red in the face, feeling my bones I haven't felt in so many years and not being so self conscience when my husband throws his arm over my waist...bc now I have one. My ladies even look better not having to compete with my tummy ;) It's an awesome feeling.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
