so tomorrow is my 40th birthday!!! Alot has changed for me since I started this sleeve journey. I'm 3yrs out & I never got to my original gw. But that's okay because I realize now that original gw was probably unrealistic for my body. it was 130lb. I'm 5'3" & I got down to my lw in my adult life of 157lb. Then I got pregnant out of the blue! Surprise baby indeed!!! My oldest is 13 & baby is now 10mo. I gained around 40lb w/ my pregnancy because I stopped going to the gym & gave in to all my carb cravings (donuts). I have finally started to lose the babyweight slowly. Still nursing & back to work but no gym yet. When I decided to have the sleeve all I really hoped for was better health & to lose maybe 50lb if I was lucky. Well I am healthy (no meds) & I lost 120lb!! If I get back to my pre baby weight I will be fine w/ that. My son told me I looked too skinny at my lw anyway. So my birthday activities include getting my hair done tomorrow, sushi dinner w/ my family & next month myself & 9 of my girl friends are going to a log cabin w/ a hot tub & fireplace for a little R&R!!! Can't wait!!! Hope everyone is well. Love to you all!!!
