Dansha 16 Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) 4 weeks ago today I was being checked into the hospital. I was apprehensive, but confident in my decision to have the sleeve. I knew this was what had to happen in order for me to get my life back. I was tired of dieting and pretty much resigned myself to being OVERWEIGHT,OBESE, MORBIDLY OBESE. Then I found this tool and I am working it to the fullest. At the present time I have lost a total of 46 pounds which started on Aug. 3rd {pre op diet for 2 weeks}. So that's like a little more than 1 pound a day. WOO HOO!!!! :thumbup::w00t: I love this tool, I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!!! One of the best things to happen to me ever. I FEEL TOTALLY ABSOLUTELY BLESSED. GOD IS GOOD!!!! PEACE. Deb Edited September 14, 2010 by Dansha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JanePatrick 0 Posted September 14, 2010 It is truly a blessing to be able to feel so good about the sleeve, your body, the changes, the whole process! I understand what you are feeling, things that you probably never felt prior to the surgery. It is like being given a second chance to have a life you should have had all along. Grats on your weight loss as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mp8btpc 33 Posted September 14, 2010 Amen! Isn't he? I remember the first things out of my moms mouth after she watched me stop breathing during my first pre op, they led her back into the room and she says praise god, god is good she said she was down the hall pacing and thanking god for what he was already doing for me. I went back I had the surgery I have hit some mental rough spots but now I know things are exactly how they were meant to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
