40 Days- What A Difference!

[BigMommaNoMore 41]

I was sleeved on 8-27-12. Just 40 days ago. I am down 27 pounds since the day of surgery. I feel like I've had a spare tire surgically removed from my middle. I am so happy I did this for me!!

The week before surgery.

LOL that is so awesome to hear because i feel like I'm carrying around a spare tire in my abdomen and i'm so ready to be rid of it : )

I use to be thin many years ago and remember how good it felt to walk around and buy cute clothes.....I hate shopping now.....I cant wait for that to change.

Awesome...good to her of someone making this change with a low BMI...Mine is also...I weigh right a 200 and people are making me feel bad for wanting the surgery......I've done nothing but gain weight for the last 12 years and dieting no longer works...I can't make myself stick to the diets longs enough.....with this,i will have to..: ) looking forward to better health,lower BP, losing that CPap machine and walking easier....
