- I guess your sister will just have to " deal with it " if you get

skinnier than her, since you will lose what your body is able to lose through

this sugery and it just might make you thinner. I certainly don't think you

are going to stop losing weight to please your sister! You have delt with

her being thinner all your life. She might have to do it for the rest of

your life, but thats the breaks! Don't let her get you down when you start

getting thin(er).
