  1. That is a amazing story....I will say that I go back and forth about the surgery as well, I have always been a giving person, by that I mean giving to everyone but ME! It was always..." i'll do it next time"...but that time seems to have never come! Well after all the yoyo diets and 25+ pounds I've lost a million and a half times! Lol! I decided its finally my turn! ????I've tossed around lap-band but I think I have decided the sleeve is the way for me! I think you have to make your own decision.... BUT make this year for YOU!
  2. Wondering who has tried spanx to help with the loose skin.... And if do which do like the shirts or short?
  3. I think the funny thing is I bet a majority of us dont want to be Barbie or Kens, and this is a tool to allow us to be health.... And yet all we can do is think "is this the right thing."
  4. I hear yeah.... My husband has always been very supportive, but just told me about a lady at his work whose mother had serious life threatening issues from being sleeved! Great, cuz being cubby isn't bad enough, when you think you find the tool to help you be healthier!
  5. I feel the same way!!! I feel like one minute I have made my mind up, then I feel like I just need to be this way the rest of my life!!!
  6. Hi, I am new here. Trying to find someone in the St Louis area. Looking into the sleeve vs band! Would like to find friends on FB to talk to thru my journey.
  7. Hi... Totally new to this site, have my first appointment Tuesday! Excited and scared all at once! Looking for someone in St. Louis area
