12 weeks since my surgery and I am in one-der-land. Haven't been at a weight below 200 in over 25 years!

I was on a vacation last week and we did a lot of walking. I did not have access to a scale during that time. So came back to find that my weight had dropped to 196.

Thanks Kathy. Yes my weight has continued to go down. A bit more slowly but that's okay. This past week I went shopping for some new clothes and got a size 12 pair of jeans and 2 size medium tops!!! I really can't remember the last time I wore sizes like that but over 30 years ago at least! I'm feeling good and happy with my decision.

WAY TO GO!!! Isn't that the best fun buying clothes now. 62 and one year out lost 100 lbs and feeling great. Passed my goal and still losing. Jogging 4 miles a day. Best thing I did for myself was the sleeve!!!!




Way to go! I'll be 62 in July '17. I'll be one yr post op sleeve the middle of July. So far from my surgery I've lost 70#! I've been struggling some lately and have tried to increase my exercise and having trouble with that bcos of a back injury that has me on disability. Ugh!
You are doing great! Keep up the good work!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
