    Will I always be cold?

    Cold doesn't even begin to describe how I feel!! Living in Iowa you would think I would be used to it! It has gotten worse and nothing seems to warm me up! I have the best boyfriend that has bought me a heated mattress pad do at least I can sleep at night!

    I did it!

    My first meeting with the surgeon was July 2007. At that time I was leaning towards gastric bypass. I left that meeting convinced I was going to lose weight by myself which I did 80lbs! Guess what happened after that?!? I got pregnant!! Welcome baby and all my weight back and more. Well for the next few years life happened raising a baby, becoming a stay at home mom, divorce, going back to work and all that also welcomed more weight. ( emotional eater right here ) That brings us to present time. Thanks to my super supportive boyfriend I went back another informational meeting in May 2014 and learned all about the sleeve. The next morning I called and made my appointment to meet with the Dr. From that day on I completely committed. August 20, 2014 I started my new life with my sleeve. I am down 27.8 lbs!! This is best decision I have ever made. I will admit that not everyday is wonderful. My boyfriend has been my # 1 supporter. He attended every class, meeting, group session, read every book and blog available. And for that I am thankful!! If I feel this great 3 weeks out and can't wait to see what the future holds!!
