HI EVERYONE, TO START I'M 39 YRS OLD MY HIGHEST WEIGHT WAS 251, I WAS BANDED IN 2007 MY PRE-SURGICAL WEIGHT WAS 238. MY LOWEST WITH THE BAND WAS 209, THE BAND CAUSED SO MANY PROBLEMS FOR ME. FAST FORWARD I HAD A HITAL HERNIA REPAIR, BAND REMOVAL AND THE SLEEVE. I WAS 232 PRE-OP AND CURRENTLY I'M TWO WEEKS POST OP AND 220 AS OF FRIDAY.

I CANNOT WAIT TO JOIN LIFE AGAIN I'M A NURSE SO WORK HAS BECOME THE DEFINITION OF WHO I AM BECAUSE OTHER THAN WIFE AND MOM I THOUGHT IT WAS ALL I HAD GOING FOR ME. MY LIFE OUTSIDE OF WORK HAS BECOME SO SEDITARY. THE TV HAS BECOME MY FRIEND, AFTER MY MOM/WIFE STUFF IS DONE. I CANNOT WAIT TO JOIN LIFE SINCE MY SURGERY. HAVE MY OWN WEEKEND ANDVENTURE INSTEAD OF LIVING THROUGH MY FRIENDS ADVENTURES. I FEEL LIKE I'M RAMBLING BUT IT IS JUST HOW I FEEL. I WANT TO LEARN TO RUN SO I HOPE TO START WITH MY TREADMILL AND EVENTUALLY TAKE MY FLUFFY CARCASS OUTSIDE TO FACE THE WORLD. I HAVE THE BEST FAMILY IN THE WORLD SO VERY SUPPORTIVE I JUST HOPE WE CAN LEARN TO DO OTHER THINGS OUTSIDE THE HOUSE SO WE CAN BECOME MORE A PART OF LIFE AND LESS APART OF THE SEDITARY WORLD WE HAVE CREATED FOR OURSELVES.

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I have had the same thoughts of how sick I am of watching others LIVE life while i just watch it go by. I am so thankful that we got our sleeves and get a 2nd chance. Best of luck on your new adventure.
