Any Feed Back....

Jus lookin for some feed back on the sleeve...

I'm 35 an very over weight...

I Jus got approved for the sleeve an will be goin to my first dietitian visit first of three requirements. I'm scared to death.

I have a 13 yr old son who is my world.

I often question myself if I'm makin the right decision in gettin this surgery.

I wanna be healthy because I have already basically robbed my son of the 13 yrs he's been on earth. With me being so over weight. I'm ready. Tired of feeling that this weight problem has had control of me all my life. Time for a positive change. I want this so bad but like I said I'm so scared.... has any one felt scared, happy, excited all in one? Please share your journey an ur thoughts... maybe it even do's an dont's... I really appreciate any feed back.

-Rach

      I felt the exact same way going into it and I have kids too. You may get mixed responses on this one because there are some who regret it but I would say that the vast majority here are so very glad t

    I wish this surgery had been available when My kids were young. At 66 I'm doing it so I can enjoy my grandchildren and just just be the grammy that sits in the big chair.

    My surgery is a week from today and I am excited and nervous.
