Momroxx 75 Posted February 11, 2013 Me on Superbowl Sunday...too bad my team lost but I am happy in my 10s! Hey you are looking great! Just think! A few months ago this was all paperwork Dr. appts, meetings, and classes. I will upload some picks next week that are clearer. Was pulling for SF since hubbies team was not playing. I went to support group Thursday night. Terry did not recognize me..lol.i don't even think Dr. Phluke recognized me at first. So I know I am changing. I am 181 and plan on being well into my 170's before the end of the month. I have removed 75% of clothing from my closet. Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Share this post Link to post Share on other sites kphat808 16 Posted February 13, 2013 Hi All! I wanted to start a thread for African-American sleevers (no worries I HEART all sleevers from the rainbow). I just thought' date=' no scientific proof, that African-American sleevers may respond to the surgery different than our lovely non-African American sleeved sisters and brothers. I wanted to know if we had the same skin issue, hair problems, and other surgery related issues. Also, how to deal with the culture shock. African-American "soul food" may be something of the past... or not. So I was just looking for a space to voice culture related issues and concens. PS- I TRULY <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/MSN/heart.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':heart:' /> ALL SLEEVERS. [/quote'] Hi I was sleeved 02/08/13 at northhills hospital, tx!! Didn't believe how many African-American's were getting the sleeve done until I started watching YouTube:) It made the journey so much easier. I felt like I wasn't the only one:) 1 BuriedBombshell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites sligh1983 7 Posted February 13, 2013 Hello Sleevers, I am 30 and seven days out...
