So I am 31 and having the sleeve surgery on june 21st, i am kind of overwhelmed the closer it gets because it is just a huge change and I don't do change very well but I don't question whether I should do it or not. Just me freaking a little. I have been overweight all my life. Ever since I was a child. I have never been a healthy weight ever. I have managed to lose sometimes but never maintain it. I feel like my weight is out fo control I am up to 300 pounds and not slowing down. Had all kinds of tests done to make sure it wasn't my thyroid and all that and no it is just my stressful life style pure and simple. I can't make the changes on my own I need some help and intervention. So I am here and ready for my surgery it will be a reliefe to not be able to be bad. I am so excited about losing weight and making the necessary changes and learning how to eat all over again. at any rate this is going to be a long hard road and I know that and I am sure it will be frought with break downs and crying and joyous times. So all I can say right now is let's roll...

Good luck and I am sure you are doing the right thing. You are young too so it will be doubly exciting.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
