freedrink 26 Posted August 14, 2013 I've been browsing these forums for about a month trying to get my finger on what actually goes on with the sleeve. With the information that I have learned from you guys, I have decided that when it finally happens, the sleeve is the way I want to go. I have had my initial consultation, and done the psych eval and just completed the upper GI requested by the surgeon last week. Now I am patiently waiting for the next step... hopefully I will hear something from them soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stacechase 251 Posted August 14, 2013 So glad this site has helped you; it has helped me a bunch too! Don't be a stranger to the forums though--feel free to ask questions and to share your experiences. After all, without all of these awesome people sharing their stories, none of us would know what to expect! Good luck starting the process! 1 zenandnow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lsereno 2,525 Posted August 14, 2013 Wow. I remember my post like yours almost three years ago. More than two years out from surgery and 17 months at goal weight of 21.8 BMI, I am happy with my choice. Best wishes on your journey! Lynda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
