Hi Guys! Im New Here And I Have A Couple Of Questions About The Vertical Sleeve :)

By fatgirlskinny

· 362 views

I'm 22 and weight 245 and 5'4". I have been over weight since I was about 7, and when I had my first baby at 20 I gained even more, now Im currently 2 months pregnant and i am wanting to get the vertical sleeve right after my pregnancy. Does anyone know if I will have to wait awhile after i have my baby to get it? As soon as I have my baby I know I will need rest but I am really wanting to lose weight, I have never felt good about myself and I'm young, I think this will really boost my confidence, make me healthy, and full of energy. I'm in Houston tx, does anyone know any good places here to get it? I have no money so I will be saving as much as I can till i get it. :) also is there anything I should know about it? :) thanks for your help guys.

    At the top of this page on the right of te search bar is a gear- that's what I hit first. Then you put in almost any question and youll find tons of answers. I can't relate specifically to your situation but I'm very happy I did this.

    For example you can put in "newly pregnant how long to wait for sleeve"

    and see what comes up. Also go to all the various sections about groups- such as "people in their 20's," "people from Texas" (where it says about what part of the country you're in) etc.

    Good luck!
