Does anyone have a BMI of around 32%?? I am highly thinking about getting the sleeve done and worried that I will lose too much and look like I am sick and on drugs :svengo: I have already been approved for financing and all I have to do is make the app. I am thinking of having it done in Juarez by Dr. Rodriquez. Anyone have thought on the locations or the doctor. I know I am rambling but I am SOOOO very nervous about my decision. what is the avg weight loss for someone of my size? I am so stressed and trying to make the right decision. HELP??!!:confused1:

My BMI is just about the same. I'm afraid I won't lose any weight at all with the sleeve. I only lost 20 with the band.

I started with a BMI of 32 (175) lbs, and I've lost 35 pounds in not quite six months. I have about 4 pounds to go to get to a "normal" BMI, and 25 pounds to get to my goal weight. I've lost way way slower than most of the people on this board, but I am thrilled with everything about the sleeve experience. I have every confidence I'll reach my goal eventually, but the best part is being freed from obsessing about food all the time! I have no regrets whatsoever and think this surgery is awesome for people our size!
