Last year on my 45th Birthday (November 4) I told myself it was time to make a major change in my life. For 23 years I've not liked what I've seen in the mirror so I decided to make a change. After a lot of research I chose to chose to be "sleeved". I just got my surgery date and its November 13th! I'm so hyped and ready to do this. In order to encourage my kids I often tell them a year will pass regardless of what you do but where you'll be at the end of that year is up to you. I choose to be a thinner, healthier me.
