Had my one month (plus a couple days) follow-up.

For those that don't know, I had a Verticle Sleev Gastrectomy done at the Cleveland Clinic.

I have lost 50 pounds since surgery!!!!!

I am down 137 total from May of this year!

I discovered collar bones and something called a sternum! LOL

People who haven't seen me in a while don't recognize me.

My health is going great. I don't care what I look like - kinda ugly to begin with! LOL
My biggest concern is for my health. I lost 87 pre-surgery. They did a liver biopsy during surgery because I have liver issues. The good news is that most of the problems are ALREADY regressing!

I'm rocking this sleeve!

Congrats! I am so glad you are doing well and feeling so good about life!
Guess what I did yesterday that I havent done in like... many many moons...

I slipped on a pair of size 11 pants!!!! I have no idea where I am ever going to wear these cute little brown courderoys to but I want to wear them somewheres soon because I CAN! LOL. Come to think of it I dont even know if I have a shirt to match it or not. they were a last second purchase becuase I found a b2 get the 3rd free sale and there was a line behind me and I said I will get these and grabbed them.
