iegal 460 Posted January 30, 2012 One of my sleeve sisters kept her fat pants too and would take a picture of her new pants on top of her old pants. Last picture she posted was of her standing in one leg of the fat pants. I find it amazing that you can look back and call them fat pants with a smile on your face. Congrats on your success with your sleeve! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypoo 9 Posted January 30, 2012 Wow thanks for sharing it gives me hope. I'm a size 16/18 and would love to be a 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypoo 9 Posted January 30, 2012 What a result! Can I ask did you get a lot of lose skin? I think I will be lucky and not have too much. I'm 220 and hope to be about 140 or 130!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie76 251 Posted January 30, 2012 WOW!!! That is really amazing! I didn't keep my pants. I passed them on to a friend who was coming down the size scale and she has passed them on since.... Kinda like the traveling pants...lol! You look fabulous!!! Congratulations!!1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sasicas 194 Posted January 30, 2012 Passing on the fat clothes is a great thing to do! I have gotten rid of EVERYTHING except the jeans and the shirt I am wearing in my initial pics. Speaking of which it's time to do another closet clean out. Poor pathetic closet haha. I have been able to successfully get both legs into one pant leg. So crazy. Punkypoo, my skin is not that bad, except my stomach. I have had 3 c-sections and carried twins so my stomach is pretty trashed and will need to be repaired but it needed to be fixed when I was fat anyways. My arms don't look bad unless I lift them out and pull down on the skin ha. My thighs and butt are somewhat giggly but really nothing like the people at my support group. And you definitely cannot tell if I am dressed. Even with my stomach being as bad as it is, it hids pretty well. My boobs totally deflated but I was pretty small in that department to begin with :/ I do not exercise so I am sure that if I did the giggly skin would tighten up.

waldy43 4 Posted January 30, 2012 You look fabulous! Our beginning stats and goal are almost the same. I have been glad to say good bye to the size 20's, but I can't imagine ever getting to a size 2. Great job working your sleeve, thanks for the inspirational post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sasicas 194 Posted January 30, 2012 I never thought it was possible. I thought I would be lucky to ever fit a size 8 and before I knew it I was in a 6 and it just kept on going ha. Now I am kind of nervous to see what size I will fit once I have my stomach repaired, I measured the flat area under the fat around my c-section scar and it is 3 inches smaller than that skin that will be removed :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MegInNOLA 531 Posted January 31, 2012 Thanks so much for this post!! You look amazing--congratulations on your achievement!! I'm really starting to wonder where I'm going to end up size-wise--I, too, have a "cranky" sleeve--LOVE that term for it, BTW--and I don't work out regularly. You are a lot younger than I, but you look like everything's bounced back just wonderfully. You give me hope! :-) Keep us posted, please! Would love to keep up with where you are and how things are going! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
