I was sleeved on Friday, January 18th. The surgery went well, but I had a very difficult time keeping anything down. If everything would have worked out right, i should have gone home the very next day, but everybody has a different experience. I threw everything up, even water. It was awful! Sunday, the 20th, I had everybody praying for me and finally I was able to keep water and protein shake down. Thank God!!

My story....I've been fight ALL my life. That's it, plain and simple. I've always had to consider my size with everything I wanted to do. I'm tired of that. I finally got tired of doing that and I knew I had to make a BIG change and I have. It is very difficult for me to imagine being under a size 20 as an adult, but that's my goal. I would love to be a solid size 16 one day and most importantly HEALTHY!!
