Dec 31, 2014 sleever here. Since surgery I've lost 120 pounds. My family and friends say that I look like I'm "melting" "gaunt" or "deathly ill". People who are just meeting me now say I look fantastic and can't believe I ever weighed 270.

My brain hasn't caught up to the mirror image of me. If that makes any sense. I used to wear a size 24. Now I wear a 6/7. I went from not having clothes that fit cuz they were too small to not having clothes fit cuz they're too big. I've actually started wearing a lot of my 10 year old sons' t-shirts!!! Also my shoes are too big I went from an 8 1/2 wide to a regular 8. Insanity!

I still don't get hunger pains. I eat all the time! And I'll eat anything Protein that will stay down! I still drink shakes daily to keep up my protein intake.

My biggest concern is my hair falling out!! It was thin to start with, now I feel like I'm balding! How is everyone else dealing with this??

Dec 4th 2014 was my surgery. I am 27 at 5 ft 9 and started at 334 at surgery. I am currently standing in the doorway of onederland (200.0 as of 9am) and have gone from a tight 28 pant to a comfy 17, tight 3x shirt to a lg and even shoes from a tight 11 to a 10 (and calf boots fit!) hair is still an issue. I cut it pretty short and it's starting to grow in again. Baby hairs are annoying but I keep thinking they will grow and I'll thicken up again. My brain has not caught up yet either. There are times I feel thin but other days I sometimes feel like the old me... until I pass a mirror.
