    Default One Year and 132 pounds later!

    It has been an amazing year - I feel like a million! I could gush on and on about how much my life has improved, but I think a picture says a thousand words, except for some reason this site isn't letting me upload a current photo. I will keep trying...arrggg

    Before: 308 pounds, size 26W stuffed
    Current: 175 pounds, size 12s are now too loose, really fit 10s but even slipped into a size 8 skirt the other day!

    Here is my before photoP1020595.JPG
    308# 12/1/2011 Start of Preop Diet
    300# 12/12/11 Lapband to Sleeve revision
    158# Feb 2013 - GOAL lost 150# 14 months post op
    150# 10/14/2013 - Plastics Dr Sauceda in Monterrey Mexico; removed 5.5# of skin
    140# Apr 2014 - maintaining 168# weight loss currently. Very happy with my sleeve and plastics results!

    My current photo was taken on our way to a party on Saturday. No shapewear, I drop about a size when I wear spanx or something. Considering how obese I was, i feel that my skin and all aren't that bad.
