Hello my sisters and brothers:

I can hardly believe that I am sitting here tonight, back home after being Sleeved in New York City on Thursday.

Oerall it was a great experience, and I must say... all this doctor's careful testing and cautious approach to the surgery led me through a flawless procedure, and very very minimal nausea and pain.

It's two days later, and I feel pretty darned good!

Don't give up on your dream. My surgeon, Dr. Alfons Pomp, who is like the best of the breed, says that it is now believed that just like people inherit their height, they also inherit their weight.

I'm so glad my surgery is over now, and also feel so lucky to sleeved!

Cinderella!

Wow! That's great! Congrats!

Congrats!! I was sleeved the day before you. Glad to hear you had a good experience. I feel pretty good too. Feel a liitle rougher today than yesterday. Overall glad to be on the other side.

Great!!! So happy for you!!!

So glad things went well. How are you feeling now after a few more days under your belt?

Hope your recovery is still going smoothly and you're getting plenty of fluids - a few ounces at a time!

Your post make me feel better. Just received my approval today for January 3rd. I had the band in 7/09 and it was out 10/09. I am hoping this will be a better experience for me.

Hello, Cinderella,

Can you give me an update on how you are doing? I also visited Dr. Pomp to talk about surgery and he recommended the sleeve to me as well. I liked him and I am strongly considering it. What has your experience been like and do you have any advice for those like me who are considering this?

Thanks!
