mahickmore 31 Posted May 17, 2015 I haven't posted much but had my daughter take pics and WOW is all I can say! At my top weight I was 210.....at 5'2" that is a lot. I got down to 196 on surgery day - 6/16/14. I had a pretty rough 6 weeks right after surgery but once I got on the proper medication the journey got pretty easy. Now 11 months post op and down to 129 it has been an awesome adventure. So pleased I had the sleeve done. I also show horses (and have for years), after I had lost about 75 pounds I was at a show, the judge was someone I showed with, she didn't recognize me and asked my trainer who that was riding my horse! Too funny. Thanks for letting me share! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesea71 698 Posted May 17, 2015 Congrats! You look awesome and should be proud of your accomplishment! ❤ I'm at goal too and I'm learning that most people don't recognize me vs. are ignoring me! It's a weird concept to grasp. I don't think I look different but then when I look at before/after pics - wow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
