Hello all!
I haven't been on here in quite some time. But I wanted to drop a hello for my one year anniversary of getting sleeved.
It has been an incredible journey. I did have a complication that was made more serious due to my own stupidity. I developed an infection that led to a leak in my zipper line. It would not have been as bad if I didn't wait almost a full day to go to the hospital. Without getting into too many details I almost went into cardiac arrest and had my organs completely shut down on me. I spent the next two months in the hospital.
OK now that the scary part of the story is out of the way, I am here to tell you I would do it all over again. In one year I have lost 255 pounds!!!!! I went into surgery on Aug. 30th weighing in at 505 lbs. I weighed in today at 250 lbs. I have never felt so good in all my life. I am at the gym three times a week and am eating pretty much anything. Carbs fill me up really quick though but I am nowhere near as hungry as I used to be. I get filled very quickly. As long as I listen to my body and don't eat junk all the time the weight comes off. You can treat yourself every so often, but I dont feel deprived or hungry. I will cut this short now, but if anyone has any questions feel free to ask. My only regret is I didn't do this sooner.
