    Default Time is getting closer

    Hello....I am very nervous about getting the sleeve done. Nobody believes me when I tell them I weigh 261 lbs. I guess because I'm 5'10 and they say I carry it well. I'm just tired of being tired and want to be healthy.

    Welcome Chick! I think you are in a boat with others who can completely relate. Do you have your date already scheduled? I can tell you that I am so glad I got my sleeve. I am so much happier and healthier now.

    I was nervous too. I had my surgery Dec 6th so I'm only 5 weeks out and I haven't felt this good in years. I am down 44 pounds and truly believe this was the best decision I ever made. I was 320 at my highest and I'm 5'5" so I did not carry it well lol. Best of luck to you!!!!
