About Saraveronica
- Sleeved or not sleeved:
- I have had a gastric sleeve.
- Biography:
- I was always overweight as a kid, teen, young adult. At 29, I had a gastric band, lost 90+ lbs! depending on the the day. Any way, after 2 1/2 years, I had the band removed, due to slippage. Did a great job maintaining until I turned about 36. Now I have gained 35 lbs and it might as well be the whole 90, because it feels like it.
I am now ready to lose the weight I gained, plus some more.
I am Arizona girl, been in India with my husband and baby for a while now.
Had surgery in Singapore.

I really am doing great! I have lost 40 lbs, back down to my lowest weight that I have ever been in my adult life. I feel fantastic, like there is nothing that i cant do. I have learned how to use my tool and i love it. In addition to my workouts, I am running on the treadmill 3 to 4 days a week and I am learning to like it!
11 to 15 lbs to go!

My dear husband tossed me a pair of his skinny large cotton pants with a drawstring, a few months ago and said, "hey, these dont fit me, maybe you can wear them." well, 35 lbs ago, I couldnt get them up past my knees, but today, they are comfy and cute!
I tossed out 4 pairs of pants today that were too big and brought down from the top of my closet two pairs of size 12s. i wanna say skinny 12s because i have other 12s that have fit for a few weeks now.

Just a quick recap: was obese my whole life, in 2004, at age 29, I had lapband surgery... lost 90 lbs in 15 months, felt amazing, was normal for the first time... back then, i followed celebrities Ann Wilson ( had lapband) Carnie Wilson ( had gastric bypass).. in 2006, I had to have my band removed due to slippage. i kept all of my weight off until Jan 2008, when over 2 years, i gained 35 lbs. i could not lose the weight by myself, So fast forward to Nov 8, 2013, I have sleeve surgery.
