Hi Rose, i just celebrated my 3 year surgiversary yesterday and it's truly the best thing I've ever done for myself. Honestly i forget all the time that i had it done until it comes time to eat lol. Yes forever is a long time but it just becomes your way of life. You get used to eating smaller amounts and it just becomes your new norm. My sleeve still does exactly what it's supposed to and restricts me to about 2 cups of food or less in 1 sitting depending on the foods. Im also still very diligent about what i put in my mouth and i still have not gone back to drinking soda.

Hi i got 6 weeks of short term disability and i used it. I have a very physically demanding job and i needed every bit of it. If you get it i recommend using as much time as they will give you, sup you can take your time healing and really be able to focus on yourself.

What a great problem to have, right? I have the same problem - I wear a smaller band on the outside to keep my engagement ring and eternity band from falling off.

So, cleaning out some older things getting ready for my son & his family to move in with us from out of state and I came across a sweatshirt from when I played MERP Football (girls team) in high school. Just for shits & giggles I threw it on. Imagine my surprise when the damned thing fit me!!!!
It's from junior year ... 25 years ago!! Yup, I'm smiling today.

180.2 this morning!
