I was sleeved on the 10th. How are all of you doing? I'm a little sore, but in good spirits and not hungry at all... So far for me it has been lemon/lime Water, sugar free snow cones , half a Protein shake per sitting (two times a day) and a diluted Protein shot (those things are too sweet to take head on IMO). Any way, the journey has started. I'm here to help pick y'all up if you fall during this long journey. I'm an open book ! Sleeved by DR Kim in Texas (Dallas metroplex) on June 10th.

Reason for sleeving: kick my diabetes to the curb.

Height: 6' 2"

Age 39

Starting weight: 273

BMI 35

Health at surgery: poor (diabetes, heart attack at 32 while playing volleyball, on 10+ medicines)

Current weight 247 (-26lbs)

Current health: improving daily, off the insulin pump, all diabetes medicines discontinued except metformin.

I will check back in later.
