- Sleeved or not sleeved:
- I have had a gastric sleeve.
- Biography:
- im in my early fifties, my knees are stuffed i have/had early onset diabetes and my left foot was so sore i couldn't walk on it, i also suffered with terrible painful reflux. So after 3 of my family members having the sleeve i have decided to do the same. My health is suffering. I have to say i have always been against the surgery it went against my beliefs in diet and nutrition but ive done it and so let the journey begin.

reach my target and feeling great all the humps i faced are a distant memory lol.... today a friend of mine gets the sleeve and on the 3 july another girlfriend joins the rising list of people getting the sleeve. Have to say i have never felt better but really struggle to eat a meal. But then that is why we get the op.
