Hello This is my first post here on the forum. I am here at a friends recommendation. (Another fellow officer who has had the "sleeve" and now lost 95lbs). Currently I am 6'4" and 320lbs and have tried all sorts of diets and drugs but the weight comes right back. Its nice to be recognized as the BIG GUY in uniform but now its getting to the point of people looking at me differently. I can see that as I have gotten older (now 39) they look at me and under estimate me, and thats not the way its been. Now for my health, family, job and most importantly my pride....today I am calling my primary physician and getting referred to a bariatric surgeon that does the vertical sleeve. If anyone who reads this knows the name of a good vertical sleeve surgeon in the Indianapolis area please reply. Also looking to get involved in helping others and support groups around the area if anyone knows how to guide me there also. I will post -- my beginning and journey pictures so please stay tuned -- TODAY IS THE DAY I AM CHANGING MY LIFE! Mark
