My 6 month check up

Timetofly · August 12, 2010

For everyone considering the sleeve surgery I wanted to post my progress and say go for it!!!

I was so worried about it and somedays now I forget I had surgery and just go on with my life.

I have lost 71 lbs. and feel great. I am off my cholesterol, blood pressure and sugar medications. I exercise every day and feel great doing it.

I have 30 or 40 lbs more to go and feel I can do it.

I am so thankful for this website and the people who take time to post and help everyone out. It has been so helpful to me

Thank you! Barbie: No real complications, I also had hiatial hernia repair with my surgery and have had no problems. I did notice some Hair loss about a month ago, but luckily I have thick hair so it isn't really noticable and it seems to be slowing down. Best of luck to you. I also have 2 friends who have had this same surgery since mine and they are also doing great!
