I know you'll be coming down here to Florida soon, Disney is a blast. I was in 3 coasters today at Busch Gardens with my fearless granddaughter, Katie; Cheetah Hunt, The Scorpion, and Sheekra, all gut-wrenching screamers. Could not fit in the seats pre-sleeve, slid right in today.

Empowerment ahead! :)

16 days out from having my lap band removed and sleeve done. I am so pleased with the way it feels when i eat. The food goes all the way down into my stomach and doesnt get stuck in my throat leaving me feeling frustrated and unfullfilled. Best thing i ever did! I had the revision done because i started having enormous amounts of reflux after 3 years with the lap band. If I kept the band loose i didnt have the reflux but i started gaining my weight back. I had the revision done before i gained it all back. my wt was 198 and i'm down to 185 in 16 days. wish i would have had the sleeve done in the first place.

Congrats, on the new you.

Congrats!
