Newbie here!

I'm scheduled for my sleeve on January 13, 2017. I'm so excited to change my life! Went out today and bought a GOAL dress :-) it is a size small (????) slinky little black Michael Kors number and my goal is to go on a hot date with my hubby wearing that dress next summer! He said I should put it on and take a picture so that we have something to compare it to when it actually fits!

Anyone else starting 2017 off with a life-changing bang?? Anyone else have a GOAL outfit hanging up to keep you in track?

I purchased items I thought would be my goal clothes, but I just reached goal and the clothes are too big!

I'm giving some to charity but there are a couple I'm having altered. Just know you may end up in an XS

That would be a dream come true- I can't even fathom being an extra small!!! Makes me so excited!

@ I feel ya! I am nervous too. But then I catch a glimpse in the mirror or of a photo and feel a pain in my knee and I am reminded why I am doing this. I hope you get a Jan date so we can be on similar timelines and help each other along!

About a month after deciding to get surgery, I was asked to be a bridesmaid! I bought my dress at a size 24. The wedding is 9/16/17. Can't wait to get it tailored down to my new size!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
