I was sleeved april 2 and lost almost 60 lbs so far. I am in a wedding in three months and had to order a dress today. A size 16 fit and a size 14 could almost zip up. The sales people kept telling me to get the 16, but I know how my body has been losing. I went with the 14 thinking even that may need to be taken in by then. Was u wrong to assume and order the smaller size?

I have a friend who can do the same!

Congratulations! How exciting!

Too funny! Sadly I didn't! But I did send a pic of me all zipped to two friends (including the bride) who doubted my size choice . I can't even imagine a size 10! I was in like 8th grade when I was last that size! Will let you know. I would be thrilled!

It is amazing what they can do!

It's only been two week!

Guess what? It already fits! It just came in and It zips up ok! Guess it may need alterations by October!

I just started exercising on a regular basis now at 3 1/2 months out. The elliptical shows I burn roughly 400 calories in 45 minutes. Instead of increasing my appetite with exercise, it is suppressing it. I am worried about not getting enough calories in now. Anyone else have this issue?

I am glad it is not just me at least! I would love to know why we feel this way!

You are lucky that your mom is a seamstress! I have a friend who can sew/alter anything. I am going to get her to help me!

Thanks! I hope I will be melted away more by mid October!
-
Wow! We have almost the exact size situation! Hope it works out for you too!
-
Thank you! It was just so overwhelmingly negative at the store about buying smaller. I don't think they understood the surgery at all!
-
Thanks for the reassurance !

I keep second guessing myself now!

Dr Alvarez....the good and the bad.

He is wonderful....nothing bad to say. I had surgery April 2 with him and have lost 59 lbs so far. Down to 198. The whole experience before, during, and after surgery has been wonderful! -
What a great feeling! It has been a long time! So thankful for Dr. Alvarez!

I actually went to Mexico with Dr Alvarez.
