Hello, As I wrote to someone else I allowed family to change my mind and doing that I lost a whole year before I said no I am doing this. The whole process took me 2 years instead of 1. I am just 3 months in and wish I was a year and 3 months. I had the sleeve, it is worth it, and you...

Hi Sandra, Try not to let anyone change your mind, I made that mistake and it took me another year to do what I wanted. I gave up a year because I listened to others instaed of my heart. How far are you into the process?

I started my process with the seminar and then did not go back for a year, after that I would say it took another year and I was part to blame. I did not lose the erquired weight for some time and I took along time to do my sleep study.

I am a very private person, I did not share with anyone while I was making my decision and going through all the steps. When surgery got closer I decided I was proud of my decision and I did not care who knew. Once I told people they were and are so supportive. I had complications so I was...

You both are doing great, I look forward to losing as much as you both have. I agree once I made the decision to do the surgery there was no going back.

Hi krissy, I'm also new to the site, but if I can answer questions or help you let me know. As I mentioned I had surgery January 31st, I had the sleeve. Have you started any of the process for surgery?

Hi Donna, I spent the first 5 days after surgery in CICU due to a heart issue. Was not related to the surgery. After that issue cleared itself the rest has gone very smooth. I am able to eat food and have been for awhile, just very small portions. My Dr has me following the South Beach...

I had the sleeve on 01/31, best thing I did. I chose the sleeve because it seemed to be the easiest procedure of the 3 and less side effects after surgery. I did not want anything foreign placed in my body, so the band was out. What ever choice you make will be the best for you, we all have...

Hello Kevin, I am new to this site, I had the sleeve on January 31st, it took me two years to finally commit. I went to the seminar saw my suregeon and ran from it for a year, then I went back and here I am, best decision I made.
