Depending on how something is made I may wear anything from a 4 to a 10. Cut, style and brand are all different. It gets annoying...

Thank goodness I am not the only one. I had my surgery in April 2011. I met goal weight and stayed there for about two years. This past year, I have noticed that it is creeping back on. I don't eat...

I botox my forehead regularly...I have a frown line that has been there for years but became deeper as I lost weight. Do it if you think it will make you happy =)

Thanks ya'll for the info on the other sites! Bear with me while I update the page and get new things on there...I'm doing one box at a time...the sizes in each box are varied..everything from 14W to...

Hi! Thanks for the info! I have never heard of Tophatter so I will check it out! Another friend of mine told me about a site called Tradesy and that looked good too. I have so many boxes that I...

Hey everyone! I finally, after two years on this journey, have started cleaning out my closet! A garage sales didn't do so well and I have a ton of clothes that I bought during my weight loss. So, I...

I drink diet and even sometimes regular soda, over ice and a bit flat almost every day for the caffeine. I don't drink coffee. I didn't do it until about six months after my surgery, but it does not...

I am cold all the time. I read an article that said when the grehlin is removed during surgery it affects our body temperature and that is why we tend to get cold easily. I can't remember where I...

About six months post surgery I started having a little bit in the morning, over ice so it flattens out, and that took care of my daily caffiene. If you drink it straight from the can or in a glass...

Well, first of all, it came from NPR; a media outlet notorious for biased, egotistical and narcissitic information. I wouldn't lend any credence to anything that came from NPR or their posters....

My insurance will not cover any kind of plastics unless there was some catastrophic event that caused disfiguration. Don't need anything done to the breast area...had those reduced and fixed years...

Happy Sleev-iversary Carolyn! I know I should not fret. I am probably making so much more of it than I should. I guess I am just super paranoid about gaining back the weight that any little...

I had a hysterectomy so I don't get a period or "bloating" from that but I may retain water at times. I hadn't really thought about that. I do exercise but not anything high impact. I have bad knees...

Okay...I haven't posted much but lately I have started to become concerned so I figured I would post this today. I went from 200 pounds to 135 pounds in about 8 months. I had my surgery in April...

I have pretty much lived in the thrift stores since my surgery because my size was changing almost weekly before I hit goal. Its unfortunate that you don't have much to choose from where you live. We...

Glad to hear you had no problems! And by the look of your ticker, you are already doing great! How did you like Dr. Almanza? Good Lord that man was gorgeous!! LOL...

I lost all of my weight in about six months. I have been stalled for 9 months. I have not gained any weight, but I am not losing either. I appear to have maintained my weight loss...I would like to...

When we came back across the border they didn't even look at our passports. I think it was because we got agents who see these doctor's vans coming back and forth all day, every day. However, that...

I am not sure what you had happen, but I used Dr. Almanza and Louise and it was a wonderful experience. I can tell you that I found out this week that Louise is no longer the patient coordinator....

I was the same way, only I am not a coffee drinker. I had to have a Dr. Pepper in the morning for my caffiene fix. I would drink one can every morning on my way to work. Now, I have modified that...

Connie...I'm in fort worth so I will keep up with you...probably doing Disney with the kiddo over Spring Break but something after that may be really fun!

Even though I have now gotten to a size that I can wear all that funky, young, bright clothing, I just still don't. I think that I am more conservative and want styles that will pass the test of...

I try to follow what I call a modified Atkins diet approach with the sleeve. I look at how many carbs you should watch on the Atkins induction cycle and try to keep it at that or lower. I probably...

To the rude comment about the profile picture..go troll elsewhere as you are totally inappropriate! Ya'll notice he/she hasn't said anything else?? LOL....in response to the questions about Louise, I...

I had mine done in April 2011. They didn't ask any of us to do a video. I am not sure what their criteria is for patient selection for a video.
