My name is Jamee and I am 45 years old. I am married and have a daughter. I had my sleeve done on May 23, 2013 and am down 48 pounds and feeling great. I have another 85 pounds to go. I chose to have it done because I wanted to be healthier. I am feeling better and better each day. I am eating solid foods now, and walking a half hour every day. Just taking things slowly.
