4 months out and down...
65.6 lbs!!! Having this surgery is the best thing I could have EVER done for myself. I can cross my legs, fit in a booth, and have started wearing summer dresses from the regular section and not the plus size!! I am very fortunate that I have NO issues whatsoever with my sleeve. I feel better than I have in years!

The whole booth thing is great, no worries now for me. Before I thought I was the only one who panicked about not fitting in a booth. I would nix going to specific restaurants because of the booth size. Long John Silver's was the worst one around here. I still won't go to LJS, it is not part of my gluten free healthy living now, but good to know I could go there with a friend and sit in the booth with them while they ate. :O)
“Not many of us are living at our best. We linger in the lowlands because we are afraid to climb the mountains. The steepness and ruggedness dismay us, and so we stay in the misty valleys and do not learn the mystery of the hills. We do not know what we lose in our self indulgence. What glory awaits us if only we had the courage for the mountain climb. What blessing we should find if only we would move to the uplands of God.? JRM
