I felt the same way when mom bought me a size L old navy sundress as an incentive. I figured I'd try it on to gauge how much more weight I'd have to lose to wear it and it fit! A large! Not a XXL or XL but a large! Which is probably the smallest size I'll ever wear in tops. My grandma passed on her chest size to me, even at my smallest Mediums felt like a corset on my tatas ;)

Congrats on the NSV! Personally, I find those way more gratifying than the scale :)

Ok everyone, I want to be super clear, so dumb question....what is the most a sleever will ever be allowed to eat at 18 mos. post-op? There seems to be a slight debate on the answer from my sources, so I present the question to you.

Well I lost 91lbs since 6/19/13, I think I would of lost more but I had surgery on a other issue that kept my activity down, but now it coming off pretty good. I been riding a bicycle from my house to Scottsburg Walmart the boatman road route is helping , once in awhile i do walk around lake iola in Scottsburg but its just boing walking by yourself. So I hope everyone is doing great.
