  1. A Year in Maintenance and I'm Doing it!

    So I'm almost 2 years post op. It's been wonderful. Last October when I hit maintenance I was cautiously excited. I was smaller than I'd been since high school back when I played every sport I could. I was wearing size 4's and 6's and feeling great. I was worried about the REAL test....maintaining my weight. That was always very hard for me to do in the past. Our large tummies were built so we could consume large amounts of food in times of feast because humanity dealt with so many famines. Our ...
  2. Without All of you guys...Where would I be? The ramblings of an online support group junkie

    Hey there-

    Although I'm a member of several sleeve forums, this one is my favorite. Why? From the start, this is where I've gotten the most support. I live in an area where it's kind of small--and there are always people moving away. It's a military town. I used to be military so I know how it is. Friends come and go--and there aren't a lot of people around who know what we are going through. When I was contemplating the sleeve--I had so many people helping me on THIS SITE. When i ...
  3. Going to Vegas with the family!

    Well I'm about 5 1/2 months post op and I'm heading to Vegas with the family today. Not sleeping well tonight cuz of nerves. i've flown quite a few times but I still get anxiety-ridden every time :-). My husband and I went alone last summer and he'd never been before. He wants to take the kids to see the Blue Man Group (he absolutely loved those guys:-) and to see the V for Variety Show. I am excited to have a good time. May go down and gamble a bit at the casino but worried about temptations like ...
  4. I'll be a son of a b*tch!

    Just slipped on a pair of size 9/10's I had saved from the late 1990's! They were Tommy Hilfigers lol. Those f*ckers actually zipped up and buttoned. No sucking in and no wiggling! Those were a pair of pants I'd kept for a loooong time hoping to one day fit in them again. *Shocked*
  5. Not minding the person in the reflection anymore...

    About a month ago I started getting compliments on my weight loss. I hadn't really SEEN the change like I expected to. It took other people commenting on my weight loss for me to actually try to see the change. Clothes are different, face is different. I just was afraid to celebrate the weight loss because I didn't feel it was drastic enough. I started to take the time out finally to celebrate my changes. I am looking much slimmer. I caught a glimpse of myself in a reflection at the grocery store ...
