    Hi everyone,
    My name is Deanna. I'm 26 from Cincinnati, Ohio. I just underwent my sleeve surgery on Tuesday, December 3rd. I had the lap band for two years before and lost about 50 pounds, and then stopped losing and started getting sick after everything I ate. So, after discussing my options with my doctor, and we decided together that the sleeve was the right option for me. Honestly, I was so embarrassed to have to do this again. I felt like a failure...and still weighed 300 pounds. But, I did it. I'm feeling pretty good so far, and have lost 8 pounds since surgery. I am determined to be the best me I can...my ultimate goal is 185/size 12. And I am reaching out for some support from you all, as this is my second go around!! thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you all...
    Happy holidays,
    Deanna
