Ok, I am a couple days short of my third month surgiversary, but it's the weekend so I took the measurements today. I started at 205 lbs, in a tight size 18, low obese BMI for years, couldn't lose anything. (The pituitary tumor prolactinoma does NOT help! They are highly correlated with obesity). I lost about 13 lbs on pre op diet and now I am down 22 lbs since surgery. Total weight loss has been 35 pounds. I'm no longer obese, just overweight. Can almost get into a size 14 but the thunder thighs still won't let me.

So, my measurement losses today after 3 months:

arm: lost 1.75"

under boob, smallest "waist": lost 6 inches

belly button waist: lost 12" (what???? Had to measure three times to check for errors!! Wow)

hips: lost 6.5"

thigh: lost 2.5"

so happy to see progress like this. Hope it continues.

Wow!!!! You look amazing!!!! Your progress is phenomenal! We can both tell our prolactinomas to kiss our shrinking behinds!!

Thanks! This was truly the best thing I ever did for myself. I can finally exercise without all the fat getting in the way. I have gotten rid of the sweet tooth. And the sleeve provides the best portion control. It's up to me to eat only healthy food and keep working out. I am on my way. These three months were going to go by anyway. And now that obesity is behind me!
