I am currently just beginning. Wednesday will be my last weigh in for my six month supervised diet. All of my documentation is in, just waiting for the real work to begin. I'm a little frightened but waiting for the new life. I have never been thin that I can remember outside of pics of me as a little girl. I am the only obese person in family. Everyone is petite. I have been dealing with arthritis for years but recently learned I have it in my foot. I have tried several diets to no avail and am tired. I often get she is so pretty but so fat. I want to be able to run, something I haven't done since I was a child. I will be turning 35 and have a fear of turning 35 and being unhealthy another; year. Looking for support from people who are like me. I stumbled on this site, nothing is accidential in life.

Welcome to the site! You'll find tons of info on here, so just read read read. I'll turn 50 this month, and wish this surgery had been available when I was your age. You're very lucky to be able to start on a healthier life at such a young age. I have no doubt you'll be able to run and do anything else you've been dreaming about. The sleeve is amazing! Good luck!

Well you are in a good place to get support. There are a lot of people including me have pretty much the same story..I too have been overweight all my life and finally got the help I need. I will be the first to say that the sleeve is a very good tool for weightloss it is not the cure but it helps you make better eating decesions.. Good luck and please keep us posted.

Welcome to the site and your new journey. I am going to warn you...this site is soooo Addictive! I was excited when I decided to have my surgery but after reading the great and many success stories here I am on pin and needles waiting for mine in a month. I can't wait to be among these great people that have already begun their battle and had such great success and continue to be an inspiration to us.
