Well, it's been a hell of a year - some good, some bad but all in all the best of my life so far and i wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING!! Since October 2011 I've had 4 steroid injections and a "nerve burn" in my low back to relieve some of my pain, i went through a 6 month insurance mandated program with the local Bariatric Center, lost my grandmother (dad's mom) and grandfather (mom's side) and had to have a very scary biopsy performed. I thought my world was crashing down on me for 3 days before i got those biopsy results but all was ok and I got my new surgery date (4 days later) for my sleeve. On May 22nd the new me woke up in the hospital and has been going strong ever since!! It's not always been easy and i've had to have a few "come to Jesus" meetings with myself but i'm 90 lbs lighter than i was one year ago, i already have so much more self confidence than i have had in years and i feel AMAZING!! Please remember that no matter what this world throws at you on your journey to be sleeved, if you stay focused on this path you can overcome it all and will be so thankful for the gift you've given yourself!!
