One month ago I was arriving at the hospital..nervous, scared, and anxious were just a few of the emotions I felt that day. Surprisingly, the recovery hasn't been near as bad as I was expecting it to be. I have had a pretty easy recovery and for that I am extremely thankful. I weighed this morning and I am down 33 pounds. I am very pleased with my sleeve! Its only been a month but I feel wonderful!! I'm not even considered a diabetic anymore!! This surgery is a lifesaver and I could not be happier!
