Hello...My name is Maria and I am new to this site...just got approved to have the sleeve done, but very scared and apprehensive at this point.
I am 5/9 and a half and weigh 225 at this time...only trying to lose down to 180 or so, but afraid if I have the surgery I would lose more than that and I do not desire to be any smaller and look like a "bean pole".
I am just curious, do you know think that I would end up losing more than I would like to.
I pray that my medical concerns will be cleared once I lose the weight, I am just concerned at this point of looking sick.
Please help if there is ANY help or guidance you can provide me with.
I currently reside in Georgia.

Hey Delovelly, How did it go with your surgery. I caught a glimpse of you in the hallway (Surgery 1/27, but I had a bleeding complication, so had to stay an extra day). If you get a chance, get the broth from outside the hotel -- the one at the hotel is not too good.
