My Life Started On August 19, 2011

[wolverine 1]

I had the sleeve done on Aug 19 2011. Age 55. Start weight was 380 pre-op. At date of surgery I was 342. Today I'm 238! and still loosing for a total of 142 lbs. While at JH I was treated better than any hospital at home. My hat off to the team and Dr. Almanza for giving my life back. Long gone is the high blood pressure pills. I/2 of my diabetes pills gone with my doctor telling me that within 2 months I'll be off them totaly. Gave ALL my clothes away --went from size 52 jeans to 38. WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SAY!!!!! Follow the pre-op and post-op rules to the letter, trust the team (I'm sorry I forgot to mention Louise Johnson and thank her) and start living the life God meant us to have--as a SKINNY(er).person.

Thanks for reading this and if you decide to follow through then call Louise and mention my name Jim Allen from Manitoba Canada
