803Misty 11 Posted August 24, 2012 You will have mixed feelings. I think that is normal when it comes down to Surgery time. I started thinking of all the what ifs but it didnt add up to all the struggling I went through on all the different diets that you can possibly think of. I am almost 4 mths out and it was the best decision ever. I started at 233 and I am down to 167 today. Its Awesome!!! The first couple days are a little tough but so worth it. You can do this!!! Prayers your way!! 2 xavtay2 and smoore reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iPrincess 39 Posted August 25, 2012 Hi ever one I'm new to this I have my sleeve done on 09 27 in if you ask me if im scared yes im I just been thinkin about every thing but I'm 24 in I'm 384 in got people telling me don't do it I don't know what do I been tryin it on my own in everthing in it didn work I just getin big I'm tried I need help. Hello Quita, my surgery is 9/25, right there with you. I was going to do the lap band at first because at the time insurance only covered lap band or gastric bypass. As time went on during my dr visits I asked if the sleeve was covered and it was. That's when I made my decision about the sleeve and I'm ready because I know in the long run it will be best for me. As far as the comments that other people saying don't do it, most will I had some co workers tell me the same thing because they think the surgery will make you look sick or old but you have to tell them that this is not he bypass it's different still they might not understand. Just do it for your health and just you and keep on moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
