21 months post op and maintaining quite well ;-)

So i'll be 2 YEARS OUT July 2013 and i want to be under my all time low... !!!

Wow!!!!!!!

It's been a long time since i've been on here. I was sleeved July 2011. I've lost over 100 lbs and i feel great! I've been maintaining my loss through all my ups and downs (divorce, death in fam etc..). I'm booked and paid up to have a tummy tuck and some lipo. And if i still need it in a few months i'll have an arm lift and yes a thigh lift... since my weight has been stable for quite some time now ...

Still hard to believe i was ever a size 22 and my waist measured 51 in... when i look back over my pictures from the past, at the time of the pic didn't think i was so big but now i see i was defiantly in need of some help. and i found it ( thanks sleeve and Dr Aceves) ... current info and measurements 5'3 149lbs bust 34 waist 32 and hip/but 36. I have lots of skin because i lost my weight super fast in about 7 months or so and i've been between 145-150 my heaviest weight since surgery was 158 but i was uncomfortable at that weight so i watched my portions and excercise to get back down.. i would love to reach 140 before my tuck. So i'm back at it again. Portioning and excersizing i pray i make my goal!!!

I will post more pics soon. Bless you all and message me anytime i'm always around and drop by from time to time.

2 yr surgerivery coming july 2013... can hardly believe it.

Gosh when I look at it this way, it really changes my perspective..

Wow. That is great to hear! Go you!

I was sleeved 1.4.2012 I have often wondered what the next year will hold for me. I don't know if I can go as low as 150, but maybe 15-20 lbs more, then kind of hold steady and focus on some serious muscles!
