Not much to tell other than I was fat (severely morbidly obese). I wanted a lap band for years but our insurance had an exclusion clause. When we were finally able to afford self-pay, on my initial consult the doctor HIGHLY recommended the sleeve gastrectomy. I liked what I heard and went with his recommendation. It was the single best gift I had ever given to myself. I am a slow loser but I am also a firm believer that as long as I am doing what I am suppose to do (eat right, exercise, dont drink while eating) then I am convinced it will eventually get me to goal. I lost 85 lbs in 2010 ( 70lbs of that was since the surgery in June)and I need to lose about 65 more. I can do it! It helps that my husband was sleeved two months after me. He is my biggest supporter and I am his.
