- Sleeved or not sleeved:
- I have had a gastric sleeve.
- Biography:
- I have struggled with my weight since my second knee surgery when I was 16. I have now had 6 knee surgeries and have a bulging disc in my lower back. I have tried diets, medication, and I even go to the gym 4-5 times a week. After talking to someone who had a gastric sleeve about 2 months ago, I decided to re-look into the sleeve and decided its for me. With my doctors ok (even for it being done in Mexico) and some family members uncertainty, I have decided to take the leap. I set surgery for the 29th. I decided I had plenty of time to think about this, and any delaying would just increase the stress and jitters. It didn't give me a chance to do the last supper month that I see so many people gaining a lot of weight with (although I did allow myself a big juicy hamburger that would normally make me gain 5 pounds just by looking at it). I'm still nervous, but I've been reading enough profiles and posts on here to calm some of my nerves.

So I have been looking at the sleeve for about 6 or 8 months now. The hardest part for me was giving up my diet Sunkist. My relationship with my diet sunkist was comparable to any smoker. About a month ago I ran into a friend who had a sleeve (state side of course as she had insurance coverage, almost made me consider marrying a military man so I could have insurance to get this surgery done, though I don't think my fiance would like that very much). She had lost 40 pounds since the last time
