I had the Sleeve surgery on January 4, 2013. Its now November 20, 2013 & Ive already lost 182lbs. I haven't been this happy & healthy in almost 35 yrs. I had no idea that it'd happen so fast. I love my Dr who gave me the surgery. She saved my life and helped give me a new one. I still have 35-40 more lbs to go. But I knw I can do it. I exercise daily and stick to a 1000 calorie a day diet and exercise at least 1 1/2 hrs a day. I'm below my pre-pregnancy weight as well. I'm very happy withthe results of my surgery. Id recommend it to anyone with the option.
