How are things going? I've been at my personal weight goal for three months. 130 or so. Working on figuring out how many calories to eat to not loose anymore. Been playing around w 1490 cals a day and eating back some of my exercised burned cals too. Been going to gym 3-4 times a week and doing my at home morning workout routines too. Love my sleeve. I've lost 145 pounds! I had sleeve surgery 6/11/12. Sent from my DROID RAZR using VST

Yes the weight loss does show on my body, I do have loose skin and saggy boobs. I am very self concious about that too, more so than when I weighed 270. Yes we have had sex and I wondered what he was thinking when he saw me naked. I have thought about telling him but wondered what his reaction would be. Thanks for your thoughts.

Been dating a guy for over 2 months now. He didn't know me when I weighed 270 pounds or before WLS. Wondering when/if should tell him. We've ate out at restaurants so he's seen the small amounts I've eaten and always take home the leftovers too. I told him I'm watching what I'm eating & have mentioned to him I've lost weight but haven't told him how much or how. Opinions??? Sent from my DROID RAZR using VST

Hit Goodwill & Salvation Army & consignment stores. I have found brand new clothing w the tags on them at these places. Used to wear a 24 /3xl & now wearing size 10/ med/large. I restocked my closet w smaller clothes at Salvation Army and only paid 49 cents each for most items. I have bought new too. Only buy new bras, undies, pjs, shoes. I took most of my too big clothes to consignment stores & have made over $200 on my fall/winter items & donated the rest to my local domestic violence womens shelter.
