DanaMomto3 145 Posted July 29, 2013 I told my husband I wanted to be sleeved. One year ago I picked up the phone and made my first appointment. I am now 6 months post op, down 86lbs. I started in size 22 pants and 3xl tops. I am now in size 14 pants and almost ready to move to L tops. What a great decision! 19 Mrs.RRn, Reigo, Googler and 16 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daddysgirl10 62 Posted July 29, 2013 Hello Dana, I'm Dana too (LOL)!!!! Quick question for you being six months out and 86lbs down. Did the weight come off fast or were you losing like 1-2 lbs a week? You look great I just had to ask. Dana 1 DanaMomto3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I joined a gym on 3/30 and I work out 4 times a week. I do 45 minutes of cardio each time and then I do 15 minutes of weights. I aim to burn a minimum of 600 calories each time. I also keep my diet to 700 calories a day. 800 on gym days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
