Hi Bookleen, This site is on Facebook alrite but we r not automatically on it. U have to join it. Dont like posting on facebook bout my sleeve as not a lot of my friends know I've had it done.

Hi to my fellow irish ladies.... We r defo in a minority on this site. I had my sleeve done here in Ireland in Dec 11 and am 95lbs lighter since then.. Best decision ever. How are ye all doin?

Hi Booklean and anyone else from Ireland. Forgot about this site but got some email notifications so decided to update on here.
I had my op on 22nd of September 2010. I've had no real complications since and everything has gone well. So far I have lost approx 12 stone and am now expecting a baby this coming September!
Still losing very slowly during pregnancy but have been assured baby is getting all it needs. Would love to hear how everyone is doing.

Hi there, I'm new to this forum too. I am 34 yrs old with a top weight of 438. My goal weight is 225-200 pds. I am 5'10 and think this will be a good weight. When I look back at the happiest times in my life, that was the weight range I was in. I am at 408.5 now and look forward to breaking into the 300s. The small victories will keep me motivated, and eventually I will hit my target.
I dread having the loose skin, but I plan to weight train and exercise. I hear drinking plenty of Water will help. I pray I have good genes and most will strink. If not there is always surgery or Spanks...lol

Wonderful news!
