    Default Finally posting after 3 years of lurking

    Hi

    I have been lurking for 3 years now. In that time I've had bariatric surgery offered twice and I chickened out. This time I'm deadly serious and got my surgery date yesterday. It's been a long road just to get here. I have learned so much from this forum that I can finally say I am mentally ready for my gastric sleeve........yay!

    More to follow......just dipping my toe in



    Start weight 142 Kg
    Pre op weight 125 Kg

    Month 1
    Month 2
    Month 3
    Month 4
    Month 5
    Month 6

    I am doing my research now. I am sure I want to have the sleeve done, I just want to be more sure about the surgeon and facility. I am happy for you and look forward to hearing about your great results! :-)
