O M G!!!!!! Absolutely stunninggggggggg!!!! Extremely excited for you. I'll be getting sleeved August 28!!! A little nervous. You seem to have no loose skin at all!!!! That's great. I'm really afraid to have loose skin and shedding of hair. Did you encounter these problems??? Did you work out?

You have really rocked your sleeve!!! What a terrific job you have done. All your hard work really shows! You will do FAB in maintenance!

LOL ... I love you guys... I really can't say it enought thank you sooooooooooo much!!! I have to admit a lot of my success came from this forum... it came from everyones support and luv for each other! when I first started trust me I was asking allllllll kinds of questions.. and it was because of the other vets that I was able to have the journey that I had so please feel free to ask anything.

I do have some lose skin, but honestly every day that I work out or do my exercise I am toning up little by little, the fact that I started working out at week 3 is probably what helped a lot and the fact that I always did some sort of exercise even before the surgery.. I exfoliate and use firming lotion just to aide in the process. Its still there, and im sure after I have kids i will want a Tummy Tuck. lol. the real issue that I have is genetics... I have strech marks everywhere which sucks but the only thing that will make those go away is time, your skin is always shedding cells and eventually the strechmarks will fade but the only thing I care about is me being healthy... If a guy doesn't want me cuz i have stretch marks or a little lose skin... well ...HE CAN KICK ROCKS! but thankfully I have a man who loves me for me.

I have had a lot of people message me, and I just want you to know I don't mind it one little bit, I will answer any question that you might have to the best of my ability... just as others have helped me im just payin it forward. )

I haven't been posting lately because honestly.. im not sure what else to say.. I have had one hell of a journey these past 6 months.. and I feel terrific.. I just want to let anyone out there that worried know.. if you work your sleeve it will work for you!!!!! I couldn't be happier.. Im not even sure that I want to hit goal because im really happy with where i am at right now.. i always said that around 160 would be good for me because i have a lot more muscle than most so at a heavier weight I think I look ok.. So instead of waiting to hit goal I am officially posting my before and after pic. Again a huge thank u too all of you for your support during my journey I hope I can be a support for others on their journey!
