Any Ohio Sleevers?

I'm in Cleveland and just starting the process. I met with the Surgeon at St Vincent and have started my 6 month supervised diet that my insurance company wants me to do. This just seems like its going to be forever now that I have made the decision to have the surgery.

I'm doing great. I've had no pain and no nausea. I'm just trying to learn my body's hunger signals.

Great!! That's exactly what I like to hear. Keep me posted on your recovery process and weight loss.

Congratulations!!! How are you doing? Did you have alot of pain or nausea? Have you resumed normal activities yet?

I was doing pretty good until Thursday. I got out of the house for the first time and haven't felt well ever since. Light-headed, dizzy, and nauseated. Feeling better today though.
