Hi Y'all, My name is Cat and I weigh a ton, well, not a ton but enough as to where I feel I do and it's time to do something about it. My last Dr visit was a wake up call, I had talked with my Dr before about the surgery and he wasn't for it, but that Dr left and I started seeing his partner. I told him money was tight now and he asked how I could not afford something to save my life. After all, I pay out the rear for my prescriptions. So I talked it over with DH and he did some looking on line that afternoon, came home and we made a choice my life is worth this surgery. So DH and I have gone to one seminar about weight lose surgery, listened to the nicest Dr talk about all the options, we have two more to go to before I decide where I want to go to have it done, we have decided the sleeve is what I want done right now. I know if I can get most this weight off I can start walking again without the back spasms and my knees killing me. I know I am facing total knee replacements in the coming years and I really want to be healthy enough for that recovery. Are their any of you who wish they had not had the sleeve?
