Hi - my name is Debbie and I'm 57 years old and after decades of yo-yo dieting, I said enough is enough. My husband and I are retiring early at 63 and we are going to move to Mexico and will be financially stable to enjoy life. This prompted my thinking to I want to be the best Me I can be and the way to get my health under control is to get the gastric sleeve. My surgery is scheduled for 6/16/23 and I'm in the process of all the doctor appointments. I know the sleeve is one of the tools in my health journey. I did do keto an exercised for 2 years and got down to 189 - right before Covid shut everything down and the weight came back with a vengeance. I've met with the Nutritionist and got clearance from the psychologist - and my doctor said they were the most important part. That now he can submit to my insurance. I'm excited to do this and now even more excited that I found this forum! I look forward to making friends and getting advice and support.
