Glad to be here

I'm new to these forums, but I just wanted to take a few moments to introduce myself to the boards. My name is Mike, I'm 33 years old and am married with 2 beautiful children.

I had my sleeve done on April 1 and it's already paying dividends. Since the surgery, I have lost roughly 20 pounds, but I know there's a long road ahead and I'm prepared to keep going.

I've been heavy all my life and now I really feel like I've been given a second chance. I don't intend to screw it up. Anyway, just wanted to say hello and lend my support to everyone who has had the procedure done or are thinking about making this life-changing decision.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask and I look forward to interacting with everyone in the future.

Thanks!

Welcome, Mike! I think you'll find this a friendly support group. There is a Man Room, too--you can get and give advice from a male perspective there. Congrats on your sleeve!
