Piplula 709 Posted February 17, 2013 So I pulled out the one pair of pants I saved when I get all thin so I can show just how far I have come. I have currently lost 137# and my personal goal is 200# if my body will let me get there..so I had my daughter get in one leg and I got into the other..these used to be tight on me! I am a size 16 now these pants were a size 28. I am thankful I chose the sleeve..it's opened a world of possibilities! Added to post: I will be 11 months post op on March 3rd. 12 hours preop Me and my daughter in my old jeans Here I am by myself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
