Hi, You are in my neck of the woods! Welcome. I will be happy to help you. What do you want to know first?

I think from reading your posts it is how to make a decision.

So, I will answer that first.

Read alot of the threads on here.

Take your time. Post questions when you have them regarding what you read. Do not dwell on the negatives.

This operation is major surgery. It is a serious life changing event.

Make sure you are ready for it. Emotionally mentally physically.

Do you have a support system? ( Mom Dad Friends?)

We can be part of your support group. We are all here 24~7.

I love this board. I love my sleeve.

Be patient with yourself, don't try to do this all on one day. Give yourself the gift of time to really decide.

The sleeved stomach is a TOOL for weight loss. Weight loss will not happen like a magic pill. You do have to take some responsibility for USING the tool.

OK, that is probably too much info for the first effort.:001_rolleyes:

Hugs,

Carolyn
