Meeee at 6 months post op

[Stacey83]

I had a gastric sleeve hun! I've been so lucky I must admit, recovered well (well once I got home anyway), can eat everything with no real issues (have to be careful with too much sugar and spicy food hurts a bit but...). Just need to get back out running now as I was doing really well up until a couple of months back when a pre-exisiting hip injury reared it's ugly head. Now I'm at the physio every 3 weeks, but it's getting better x

AMAZING! I'm 3 months out with a sleeve and your results are inspirational, if I can reach 6 stone at 6 month's I'll be very happy! X

Your loss is incredible too though!!! I haven't stuck to 'the rules' which a lot of people would frown upon but I say each to their own and we all have our own journeys. My aim in this was to live normally...just eat less. It's been a huge success, if that's my measure x

I do Cariadd88 and may I say wow you are incredibly beautiful! xxx

Aaww thank you ( blushing like crazy ) xx

Starting to see some of my features coming back which is lovely - who knew I had cheekbones!! Still got I think, around another 4 stone to lose but it's so difficult to decide on a final weight goal as it's so long since I've been there, if that makes any sense?! xx

 

[Mandijayne]

Well done. Your looking fab. X

 

[slimpip]

Yeah that makes total sense!!! I have an initial goal of bmi 28 ish, but I just want to see how I feel when I get there and then redecide. I am doing this to have a baby, so I'd be happy at BMI of 28 to start trying for a baby!

You're rediscovering cheek bones, for me it's collar bones haha xx

 

[Cariadd88]

Aw so exciting that your doing it to have a baby that really is a wonderful goal you are aiming for!!

Strange things all these bones you start finding hehe. I freaked out the other day because I could cross my legs with out having to lift my leg up by hand!! Such random simple things but they really mark exciting mile stones! xx

 

[slimpip]

Oh yeah I had that one too, or just that without really noticing, I found I could have my leg crossed, comfortably for hours under my desk, rather than after a few mins feeling really uncomfy. And...the other day I ripped my tights really badly so decided to take them off and I was so worried as I thought my legs would rub terribly...but they didn't. I mean don't get me wrong, there's nowhere near a gap but it didn't feel bad.

I went over to my mums today and tried on her entire wardrobe haha, she's a size 18. Everything fit!!!! Even her next work trousers. The dresses that are tailored didn't look good around my tummy (love handles galore) but they all fit and that made me so happy. NSV for today x

 

[Jacwat]

Wow! You look amazing! Well done, so inspiring xx

 

[Cariadd88]

Hey hun how you getting on? Have you been out showing off in all your size 18's, or has your mum locked all her clothes away hehe xx

 

[slimpip]

Hey lovely! Oh I'm getting on great...you should head over to my diary

But just incase you don't want to, here's the picture I uploaded this morning from yesterday. I am officially a size 18 in everything. I have bought office wear trousers (no give), a pencil skirt (as shown) and a hiking coat (which I have always found to be fairly small fitting) all in a size 18...so it must be official and I am really happy! How are you doing? XXX
