[size=5]Hello All,[/size]
[size=5]I am a woman whom have experienced numerous attempts and successes at weight loss but never successes with keeping it off. In conjunction with failed weight loss attempts I am predisposed to obesity hereditarily and I happen to be plagued with a condition known as PCOS and a thyroid condition which contributed to my excess weight gain and weight loss failures. Well this year I decided the yo -yo syndrome was over. I took the plunge and got "the sleeve" on Oct. 29th 2013 and I am now 7 weeks post op and learning things about the sleeve thy didn't prep me for and thanking God for the opportunity simultaneously! Hopefully, after the small hiccups subside this will be the best decision for me that I could have ever made![/size]
