My journey

[bbbeauty1971 1]

I am six weeks post op sleeve. I have lost 25lbs. I am so glad I decided to do this. My surgeon was awesome. She is at Sparrow which is located in Michigan and her name is Mindy Lane. The question I have is I am tired of eating the same thing. Do anyone have suggestions?
