My name is Brenda B. Most of my life i had been happy, healthy,and involved. My weight flucuated, but i was running 2 businesses, taking vacations, loving life. In 2008 I was diagnosed with LAM, which precipitated a double lung transplant. It was then I gained 132 pounds, onto my already 180 pound body. My transplant team was adamant about losing weight.
After 2 years, I finally committed to having surgery done. The sleeve was chosen for me, because of all the med I am on. Surgery commenced Feb 19 2015, and I am down 32 pounds so far. So many questions, and looking for support out here.
