My name is Crystal, from Louisiana. I'm 29 married with 2 kids. In the last year I've been especially down about myself and my weight. I've always struggled with my weight but it got out of hand this past year at my heaviest weight of 225. After a few months of talking about the possibility of having a sleeve done me and my husband finally came to the conclusion that I would have it done. I had my first appointment in April and was scheduled to have surgery on June 2nd. It has now been one week post op and I'm feeling great and have so many questions! Went for my one week checkup and lost 11 lbs. Not sure if that's typical. Also I am surprised at the amount of energy I have. On top of cleaning everything in my house like a crazy person, I am also walking no less than 1 mile a day. Would love to talk to ppl that understand my new journey!
