[font="comic sans ms, cursive"]My name is Lisa, I am 44 years old, married with two daughters. I have struggled with being overweight my entire life. In 2006 I had a gastric band. I weighed 280 lbs, after 1 year my band slipped out of place so I had to have it removed, after removal my weight kept creeping back up and I started to be miserable with my self. I had a Sleeve gastrectomy on 8/29/12 and after a few complications with my blood levels I was discharged after 5 days. I am 6 days post op and feeling great, I have not taken pain meds since day 2 post op. I am so excited to see the new me[/font]
