I have been overweight my whole life. I have never been the type of person to let it hold me back. I just accepted the way I was. I have been blessed with a husband that loved me just the way I was. He never complained or said anything about my weight. He actually did not want me to have surgery. I didn't have sleeve surgery because I wanted to be skinny, I did it purely because of health reasons, and the weight loss was just an added benefit! I have high blood pressure, diabetic, PCOS and degenertive disk disease in my back. My new beginning to being healthy started Monday, April 26, 2010 with my vertical sleeve surgery! So far my blood pressure is under control and I have lost 10 lbs! I can't believe that I am not hungry!:cursing:

My surgery date was April 26, 2010, as of today I am done 15 pounds!!! My blood pressure has been fine since surgery also. My post op appointment is Tuesday, can't wait to see how much weight that I will be off by then.

I am a South Mississippi Girl! I was sleeved on April 26!! I am excited about the journey that I am beginning!! Tomorrow will be my first day to eat something other than clear liquids.
