looking for a gastric sleeve buddy!

I'm from TX planning on getting sleeved towards the end of April..waiting for my surgery date. I'm 24 yrs old and I'm looking for someone I can relate to and go through this journey with...someone who understands. If anyone out there can relate and would like a sleeve buddy..please let me know :)

Veronica..sleeve sisters is exciting! How far along have you come since the surgery? Is the weight falling off? Are you able to exercise regularly with no difficulties?
