Let's Check In November 2012 Sleevers!
ashelaine replied to timetobefree's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm in for sx, too- our goal is trying for another kiddo next year some time and I will be having boobs and tummy done after that. I'm not sure I will see many smaller sizes until I have surgery either- stupid belly!! -

That's kind of my plan. I'm in a size 10 right now and I need to tone up a bit more- other than my belly that isn't going anywhere is be decently happy with my body. I'd like to be a 4-6 but maybe not. We shall see -

I'm 4'11". My doctors (PCP and surgeon) told me 130. He said when you are as small as I am height wise with my build- I'm all boobs and hips/butt- 130 would be adequate. My best friend is 5'1 weighs 133 and is in amazing shape- there is nothing about her that is overweight. She looks amazing and wears a size 2 or 4. -

Tending to children post-op
ashelaine replied to laffypatty's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I have 3- 3, 6 and 9. The 3 year old wasn't potty trained yet when I had my surgery and he is not an easy pull up change. 4 days after surgery in the 10 minutes people were gone he decides to have a massive blow out. Changing that was NOT fun, but I did it. You should be ok. And I would go easy with the baby for the first week or so, but you should be great -

Making deliberate choices at nearly 6 months post-op!
ashelaine replied to VSGKirk's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Cheri- thank you for writing that. I too am a SAHM with 3 kids. And we are hoping to have another next year (we have yours and mine and are hoping for an ours- gotta love blended families). It is crazy being steps away from temptation all day! This summer I made the kids a meal plan breakfast and lunch and then we will all eat the same dinner. I also made myself a meal plan breakfast and lunch. Hope fully it will keep me in check. Thanks for writing what you wrote- it hit me square between the eyes this morning and I needed it. -

Nov Sleevers... What's Your Status?
ashelaine replied to Yasmine's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I totally know what you are saying. I officially can't wear anything but bras from lane Bryant and I can't wear anything from torrid. I went shopping yesterday just killing time and almost had a mini panic attack in torrid because everything was too big. Never expected to have that problem! -

I would guesstimate the old bras 'fit'- but weren't the proper sizing. I had this happen for a long time. I assumed I was a DDD- but I'm really a F, G or H depending on the bra.
