hadouni 301 Posted July 16, 2012 The past week has been amazing! I fit into my first pair of Lucky Brand jeans. I didn't buy them because I didn't really need them, but they fit! =) The scale is inching down again and all of a sudden my size 16 stuff is hanging real low. One of my friends AND her mom are looking into sleeve surgery because they've been so impressed with my progress. (I'm very excited for my friend because I know she'll have a whole new outlook on life) Another friend, who was the most verbally outspoken against the idea of any WLS saw me for the first time since surgery and I've made a believer out of her. She expected I'd not look healthy and that I'd have more skin issues than I do. She was shocked how healthy I looked and was even more surprised to see the condition of my stomach and boobs - I think they look like the dickens, but she evidently expected them to look worse! She's a pretty harsh critic so I was pleased! 1 catheryn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
