In late January I was 275 lbs. with an inch waist and all the issues with being overweight; items like diabetes, elevated blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep disorder, gout, and headaches.

I am now 204 lbs, with a 40 inch waste with none of illness I had before. My goal target weight 200 lbs. - which is 71 lost and 4 to go. Some people don't know its me. I feel just great, enjoying shopping for new clothes, dancing, and working out with my 20 year old son. Meeting new people, socializing and I will be starting a new business. To all who are considering sleeve surgery, please go for it. Do your home work, follow the plan. Have faith and it will happen.
