Just started fitting into size 8s' date=' wearing mostly 10s right now. Still 20-25 lbs to goal.

Any Feb sleevers thinking about plastics? I love my new, smaller body but wonder what size I would be with out this hanging belly.[/quote']

I was sleeved Feb 21st and I am less than 10 lbs from my goal weight. I went from a 22 to currently in a size 9. I would be in an 8 easily but I have to allow room to tuck in all my bellies!!! I am scheduled for my tummy tuck Nov 27th!!! Since my insurance is paying for the TT I decided to do that 1st. Next up will the the arms and breast lift.

We I can't believe this but...... I am scheduled for my tummy tuck on Nov 27th!!! I am down 95lbs and less than 10lbs from my goal weight. I have been very fortunate to have my insurance pay for my sleeve and now my tummy tuck ( I am responsible for the lipo part). Do any of you feel like this is all just happening soooo fast? I didn't expect to loose so quickly and get to goal weight in under a year or have my loose skin removed so soon. Sometimes it gets to be overwhelming because I am still getting used to my new face. I'm definitely not complainingly' date=' just wondering if others felt the same way? Best decision I ever made!!! I love my new active life![/quote']

Wow! You are having an amazing ride! I know what you mean about feeling overwhelmed by the fast pace of the weight loss and all the physical changes! I kind of freak out and have an anxiety attack every now and then. I have literally not recognized my own reflection more than once! It also delights and surprises me! Good luck with your surgery. I don't I'll be getting any plastic surgery any time soon or maybe never. I carried my weight mostly on my butt, hips and thighs so my tummy isn't too bad. Maybe eventually I'll have Lipo and plastic surgery on my thighs but I don't think insurance will pay for it.

Wow congratulation on the weight loss and the scheduled tummy tuck! I still have quite a bit of weight to loss, but there are some feb sleevers that have met their goals or are real close. I can't wait to get there.

I has to come post. I made it to onederland today. So excited. I really do love my sleeve. 115 down since the start of my pre-op

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Great job!

Just a quick update. Finally broke another zero and am in the 150s- 20 lbs to go! Starting to squeeze into size 8 but 10s are still comfy. Here's a pic from the weekend. The red dress is flowey but it still said "small" on the label! Who would have thought that the word small and I would ever be in the same sentence? How's everyone else doing?

Congrats to you! I should be there soon I like 2 or 3 lbs away.

I love when Feb 2013 sleever's start chatting again! Congratulations erp! Great work. It has been quite the journey for us hasn't it? Hard to believe so much change in the course of a few months.

So much change is right! I still struggle with portions and overeating but it has all been so worth it!

Congrats!! That's an awesome success story!

I hope everyone is doing great. It is awesome to see how everyone is doing. Keep up the good work. I'm so happy I made this decision I'm down 88lbs overall and 70 since surgery 2/19/13 yesterday when I stepped on the scale and it read 200.0, man I just want to hit my first goal lol it was like a big tease so hopefully the next time I weight I will be under 200 my next goal is 188lbs, I hope I can make it to 170 by 2/19/14. I know I should be better about tracking my calories and could be better about getting exercise in daily, but I also want to enjoy life and having to diet always depresses me. So I'll keep doing what I'm doing and hope it keeps working even if it is a slower loss.

Hey you fabulous Feb. sleevers: today is my 8 month surgery anniversary and I'm down 85.8 lbs! I am amazed! Have a great day everybody!
