One year post op!

  • Popular Post

Today I celebrate my 1 year anniversary of my sleeve surgery!

It's amazing how much has changed in a year! I've lost 118lbs. I've gone from a tight size 28 jean to a loose 18, and a 4X shirt to an XL. I recently fit in an airplane seat comfortably and didn't need a seat belt extender. I love clothes shopping now, can pound out an hour on the elliptical with ease, and can paint my own toenails AND breathe at the same time! =)

I still have about 60 lbs to go, but I have no doubts that I will get there. I feel amazing already, and it's only going to keep getting better from here.

Keep up the good work!

I don't usually see that many people that started where I did.

Size wise we started about the same I was a tight uncomfortable 28 at Lane Bryant, and at 1 year I was in an 18/16.

Thanks!

I was 377 the first time I walked into my surgeon's office, and 360 the day of surgery. It's nice to see someone else who started around the same weight, and seeing how successful they've been! I'm hoping to lose at least 40 more before I start discussing skin removal with him.

@Megall9

I was 358 on the day of surgery. I'm really excited to see someone in my same range. I am wishing you lots of luck, you seem right on track.
