Why did you decide to go with the sleeve?
My4Brownies replied to Gingerlockz's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I got the sleeve on Nov 9th I researched my options for 2yrs..struggled with my wait for 20..My doctor made suggestion ..mostly bypass but I o me that was a little to invasive for me..sleeve gives my that gradual weight lost without detaching my intestines or a clap..I have no regrets..this site has been good also by being honest with the pain, struggles and accomplishments..I'm grate for everyone who share their story Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App -
My co worker was happy for me..we were going to go thru the journey together n she bailed..all the way b4 my surgery she made comments of doing it her way and I don't k ock anyone's method but I have been battling my weight for 20yrs n 2 yes preparing myself for my sleeve.. I needed my body to put me in the right direction because mentally I failed me..cleanses, diets, pills..etc..I am not regretful for my decision at all..I'm proud of myself for finally making this choice for me.
