Progress - 4 Months Out

[barbi1281 112]

I just wanted to update everyone! This has happened so much better and faster than I (or anyone in my world) ever expected . I had my sleeve done on October 16, 2012. I was low BMI but hypothyroid so this should have taken longer but I'm so close to goal that I can taste it. I started at 194 with a goal of 115. My goal has since been revised to 120-125 as I've taken into account my short curvy body type. That said, as of this morning I weigh 134.8... I need to reach 128 to be a normal BMI and I know I'm almost there! I've posted a pic showing me today as well as my highest weight which was right before my Hypothyroidism was diagnosed (first pic) and my weight a few months before surgery (middle pic).

Thanks! I lost some but nothing that Vicki can't fix . Funny thing is when you're thinner you need less up there anyway.

i need to get to vickis! LOL...im 9 months out. Started at 232 at day of surgery. I am now 153. which is the surgeons projection for my one year mark. I dont have any curves (i have a fake it til u make it body for special days hahahah) so the goal is 125. not too far away!!

BTW i had a 3 month stall when i lost 60 lbs at 4 months out...started losing again in November.

Thanks for the info about the stall at 60... That's good to know in case it happens! As for Vickys - definitely worth the money... I've got natural hips but I nursed two babies so between that and weight loss I definitely need a boost and the extra padding is definitely appreciated too

I'll have what she's having.

Congrats to you! What an inspiration!

Thanks! I'm thrilled... I don't see myself as thin normally so doing this comparison really made my day! I'm 5'0 and right now I'm wearing between a 4 and a 6. I can fit some 2's depending on who makes them/stretch level. Today's outfit is a small tank, small sweater, and a size 2 skirt (it has stretch in the body but it zips normally). When I was at my biggest I was an 18
