I had my 7 month check up today (missed 6 month due to work). I have officially reached the goal weight I set for myself. I've lost 107lbs and gone from a 22/24 to a 9/10. I haven't been this weight since high school or right after.
There really are no words to describe how it feels to change so much so quickly. I can look in a mirror and not be disgusted with what I see. Don't get me wrong, I still see a chunky me, but I can live with that. I hope to have plastics next year to put everything back where it belongs.
The doc and I never discussed what his goal for me was. He told me if I was happy where I am, I could stay this weight, but it would be ok to lose another 10. My husband on the other hand said I don't need to lose any more. At this point, I'm not trying to lose, it's just coming off very slowly. I can live with that, too.
There has not been one minute that I have regretted my sleeve. It's the best decision I've ever made.
I wish you all success!
