So it's taken some time but I have finally lost 100lbs! I am so happy! I waited to celebrate until I was actually over 100lbs lost. I'm down from 331 to 229! I still have a way to go until I meet my goal but I will get there slowly but surely! I feel great and get better and better everyday. I'm eating clean and have never felt better.

Just a quick update. I am officially sleeved! I went in to the OR at 8:30 and was out around 10 sometime (not exactly sure since I was out of it).

Was brought up to my room around 12:30/1:00. Now I'm just kind of in and out of it and the left side is sore especially if I try to adjust myself. I can't quite fall asleep I'm just nodding in and ...
