Sharing these pics with the intention they encourage someone about the procedure.. I was sleeved August 22, 2012. I weighed 292 lbs at the age of 24. I was wearing a 3XL in shirts and 24 in pants. 5 1/2 months later, I weigh 209, wear a 10 in pants, and a medium in shirts! Tell me who wouldn't wanna look better and feel better. Tell me what y'all think.

Huge ass boil ! Ouch ! ?

I call them boils. Not sure what the proper medical term would be. However, if it gets worse and doesn't burst on its own, you will have to go see a physician and he will put a pin in it. -

Eventually. It will burst on its own. Sometimes, laying a hotttt rag on it will bring it a head where you can more easily bust it or it may burst on its own from the heat. -

I understand that I am not to have sugar and drink sweet tea. However, if I'm drinking 1/2 sweet and 1/2 unsweet tea, where's the harm? I need honest opinions bc that's the only thing I can keep down !

Vomiting is a sign of a leak. I would get with my surgeon immediately.
