Hello sleever's

Amazingly I met a sleever at one of my stops as I was making a delivery . The clerk introduced us as she is aware of our surgery . As I was talking to the fella , he got his surgery 3 months before I did and had lost a total of 170 lbs . This is great ! But as I watched him purchase his lunch he bought a liter of diet coke , king size snicker bar , regular size payday and some ruffles . As I was thinking to myself , wow this guy is going back to his old habits and headed for failure . After he left , the clerk informed me that was his everyday purchase and shakes the soda till its flat before drinking it . I think that's sad , especially when my company delivers fresh deli sandwiches , fruits , vegetables and salads on a daily basis in plastic cups or containers . Anyways , why would someone go thru the procedure and time to lose the weight to just go back to his old ways and start gaining his weight back ? I felt bad for the guy and wanted give him some advise but he looked like he was in a rush . He still looked to be around or near 300 lbs . I guess experiencing what I saw that night just gave me more strength and has made me continue on the right path as I have been for the last year . I hope you sleever's take this surgery seriously and commit to it for the rest of your life . Remember ( it is only a tool)

      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.
