Size 6 in TALBOTS! Wow!!! I remember when I was a size 6 and their size 10s were tight. Awesome. :clap2:

At 175.6 lbs. you must have plenty of muscle too. Fabulous! I can't wait to say "I've been sleeved."

Wow! That's amazing a size four, you have truly worked your sleeve congrats!

Okay so I'm in the Goodwill with my mom and son, I was in search of the perfect shade of grey slacks. Well I pick up a size 8(which can I say I am thrilled to be able to fit), a size 6, and a size 4 that I knew no way in the world I would be able to fit. But hey my son said, "mom they look like they could fit you." I was thinking "Mmmhhmmm I don't think so."

Well sleeve family, I could not wait to get online to tell you guys that I not only got in the 8's, but I even got in the 6's -very comfortably might I add. But HELLO can you hear me, HELLO, I say, I even got in the size 4's.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I love my sleeve. I love my sleeve.

I was in the dressing room jumping up and down. saying OMGosh I can actually fit a size 4 in slacks. And these were labeled from the "Express" store. I don't know how many of you have that in your area mall. But as a person who was tipping the scales at 298lbs I could only look at their clothes never try on or even wear, as it was made for skinny chicks.

Oh side note the size 6's were labeled from Talbots. Some of the women will understand why I am saying what store the clothes are coming from, as some stores clothes run smaller than others. So to wear a size out of a particular store is an incredible thing.

Sleeve-Land is an Incredible Thing.

My ultimate goal when I started this thing was to be in a single digit size in clothing. I didn't really know what number weight I wanted to be. So I am thrilled beyond my wildest dreams.

That is so so very exciting, congratulations!! This is also one of my biggest goals: to fit into a smaller jean size more than a weight. Yippee!!!:Banane02:

I like to think so, but my hubby says its because I have chicken legs. I am smaller on the bottom than on top. I have always had big girls (DD and up). But they are even balancing out as I am down to a C cup. Praise the Lord. If I had my way I would be a non-existent Cup. LOL.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
