You're such an inspiration to me, honestly. To see tangibly what can happen in a year makes me even happier that I've chosen this path. Keep up the good work, I hope to be in your shoes soon!

We started at similar weights so it's entirely possible for you! I remember when I started this journey there were so few heavy weights like me. It was scary not seeing the outcome of the heavyweights. The one heavy weight I really was inspired by was MissEye but she doesn't post much on here anymore.

She is a tiny size 8 or so now.. having started at our weight! It helps so much to see people who can do it. I do put a lot of hard work into my sleeve, and some people find they don't have to, but I want to lose weight so bad I won't take the chance of playing around with this.

That's awesome to hear. And I am so excited that this surgery has worked so well for you. I'm entirely, 100 percent committed and it's encouraging to know that it will work if I put my all into it. Can I ask how tall you are? I'm 5'11'' and I feel like a lot of people are usually way shorter than me...

Happy surgiversary! You have done fantastically in the past year, challenges and all!

I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!
