    Default Illinois?!?!?!

    I was wondering if there were any other sleevers from Illinois that utilize this board. Although I was sleeved almost a year & a half ago, I just joined this community last week.

    I would love to meet/talk with other post-opers to share experiences, struggles, successes, etc...

    I am in Illinois, had my surgery 5/20/13. Had mine at BMI in Silver Cross Hospital in New Lenox. My dr is Dr Joyce. I had a lapband revision to gastric sleeve as my lap band was done by a dr in Bourbonnais, IL and he totally screwed me up! Have lost 19 lbs so far!
