So I pulled out the one pair of pants I saved when I get all thin so I can show just how far I have come. I have currently lost 137# and my personal goal is 200# if my body will let me get there..so I had my daughter get in one leg and I got into the other..these used to be tight on me! I am a size 16 now these pants were a size 28. I am thankful I chose the sleeve..it's opened a world of possibilities!

Added to post: I will be 11 months post op on March 3rd.

You'll do great! Just stick to the dietary and exercise recommendations and you will succeed. It's unlike anything you have or will do before this. It is truly life changing.

Congratulations!

Thank you!

Omg the smile on your face is beautiful. It must be an amazing feeling knowing what you have accomplished! I assume that is your daughter in the pants. She must be so proud of her mom! I was sleeved on Feb 14th. I can't wait for that smile!
