I still have questions...

Hi all!

My name is Lauren and I am brand new to the forum. My mom and I have decided to get the sleeve together, hopefully in December :confused1: However i still have a few more questions, if anyone can answer them i would appreciate it :001_tt1:

1. Did you find it hard to eat slower and chew more when you go to solid foods? I worry I won't be able to slow myself down :(

2. for people who have had their sleeve for over a year or so, is daily life harder? how is it to go out?

3. has anyone stalled, and what have you done about it?

4. was recovery difficult, and how soon did you return to work?

I know I have more I just can't think of anymore at the moment haha. I am 18 and have been overweight my whole life, i have tried diet after diet and nothing works, ill lose weight then gain it back and then some. I am really looking forward to being able to have a life-long "tool" to help me :blink: any advice from the "pros" would be awesome, thanks :)

Hey Lauren

I am Alison's mom and will be going to TJ in January with them. They have their surgeries scheduled for the 11th January and are flying down on the 10th (Sunday) and back home on the 15th (Friday)

Hope to see you and your mom there!
