sleeve 4 me 910 Posted January 27, 2012 Today I am 17 months post op and I'm still lovin my sleeve. I am 8 months in maintenance and bounce any where from 144-148. Today I'm 145.3. I could NEVER do this on my own. I would ALWAYS gain it back and then some. I no longer "diet" or "starve"...I say it over and over IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!! 2010-2011 was the year of weight loss. 2012 will be the year of exercise...Lord willing!!! Thanks to all of you who have inspired and continue to support me through my journey, could not have done it without you! Love and happiness to all!!! P.s. I've attached some before and after pictures, I really don't like looking at the before because they make me so sad, but hope to inspire someone out there! 1 LilMissDiva Irene reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iwant2Bthatgirl 28 Posted January 28, 2012 Wow!! Congratulations. You look great and I have a feeling that you must feel even better. Reading your post really encourages me and reminds me that success in the area of weight loss really is possible. I know in my head that it's possible (certainly with VSG). It's so inspiring to read first hand experiences! I hope to be sleeved toward the end of May. Can't wait to be on the other side of this journey. Thank you so much for posting!!
