    Default over 400lbs

    I weigh over 400lbs and I am concerned because most of the people I see posting here are way under. My surgeon says the sleeve is best. I am wondering has any others my size have had success with this surgery?

    When I began my journey into weight loss I was 435 lbs. I got down to 299 by the time I had surgery but i honestly feel after having been through it that as long as you make the lifestyle changes that you need to make along with the sleeve then this surgery will work for you. Best of luck and go with what ever you feel is best only you can make that decision.
