Alexis, you look fantastic! I, too, love the boots--I'm looking forward to wearing mine when it gets cool enough outside (we're in the 80s still--dang it!). Congratulations on your great achievement!!

Just wanted to say thank you all for the kind words and encouragement! This board has been a great resource for me and it is so great to share my experience with people who truly understand my journey.

And to Kala, thank you! That means a lot to me.... I write my blog in the hopes that it can encourage, inspire, or sometimes just make people think. I try to be 100% honest and up front about what this surgery has done for me.

You are doing great and you look fantastic, loved reading your blog! My surgery date is Nov 15 and every time I go shopping (and have done this for years) I just look at all the boots and sigh, knowing that they are not going to fit over my calfs. Well this year I have decided that for Christmas I am going to buy me a pair (at least 1) and then also buy some more at the end of season clearance sales so that next year at the beginning of cooler weather I will FINALLY BE ABLE TO WEAR BOOTS! That is one of many of things that I can't wait for.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
