Hi Tiffy. I appreciate you taking the time to help out a newbie to this process. :cursing: It has been a little over two weeks since I was sleeved and I am already receiving compliments in regards to the weight loss. I have had a few issues but I am taking it in stride as I know from reading this and other boards that the first 30 days are the hardest. Thank you for responding and yes it helps immensely. I feel better already, my blood pressure is normal. I have now adopted my new mantra of I Do...., I Do... LOVE my sleeve....:smile1: Thanks Again!
