Hello Everyone~ Especially the post op sleevers~ Do you find that you have more overall JOY now that you are sleeved and dropping the weight? As I look back the more weight I have gained the more angry and disgruntled I have become or maybe it's this Washington weather...lol :ph34r: ~ As I went to my pre op information session last week I noticed the energy in the room was extremely sad, depressed, and just low~ I was actually the only one in the room smiling from ear to ear because I have hope that the struggle is almost Over! I'm ready for a healthier less stressful ME~ Has Your MOOD changed in a more positive way? If yes, how so?

Also while waiting to be sleeved do you so in confidence or demise???? In other words are you beginning to change your thoughts and internal feelings about yourself NOW instead of waiting to be sleeved? {hope this makes sense to you ALL}

Thanks Sleevers~

Yes!!!! Overjoyed!!! I started at a miserable 399 lbs and now I'm a super happy 285 lbs! Even though I still have a good 90 lbs to goal I am so happy and so confident! I look good and I feel great. People have noticed my happier appearance and I'm happy to show it now.

Thanks for your response~ Congratulations on getting your JOY back and the weight loss! :wub:

I have SO much more joy! I'm more comfortable physically, more confident and have more peace about my health and appearance. I didn't start to feel better until after my surgery. It was hard for me to look ahead and anticipate how great I feel now.
