Eighth month Surgiversary..... 99 pounds gone!
Eighth month Surgiversary today! I am so in love with my sleeve! I really wanted that loss number to be 100 today, but no way would I complain about 1 pesky pound. I know I am not done yet and it will happen soon.
I have had so many NSV's since I started. I am almost 67 years old and can do things I haven't done since my teenage years. I crossed my leg yesterday without even thinking about it... I climbed the bleacher steps last night without huffing and puffing.... I can reach my purse or adjust my seat while riding in a car. Before I asked my other half to lean over and grab it for me....I can-do so many things I can't even remember them all. Clothes sizes are shrinking, and shopping is fun again. I am not even out of plus sizes yet but it doesn't bother me. I will be soon!
For those just starting, don't get discouraged. For those with me and ahead of me, keep on following your plans and reach your goals. I know I will.
Age 66... VSG 12/29/14... H.W. 360... S.W. 323... C.W. 253
Congratulations on your stellar success! Great NSVs. So happy for you. You are rockin' that sleeve of yours!

Wow. You are doing great. Congratulations on all your NSV's and weight loss. I had my VSG when I was 64, and I was just a little heavier than you when I started, so I feel a strong connection to your story and your joy with your success. Great job working that sleeve. And the best is yet to come. Congratulations
