All Alabama sleeves come in

Thanks! Dr John Touliatos is my surgeon.

How are you both doing with your sleeve? Any tips you have for me would be greatly welcomed!

@@Hunter Small world! I love living in the shoals area!

I used his partner Pennington. I love them at advanced surgeons. They have given me back my life!

Jacqueline K,

I am not aware of any support group in Tuscaloosa or Pelham. Life is so ironic. I noted you used to live in Helena which is right next door to me. I am doing okay on my sleeve but temptation is always knocking on my door. My husband is the worst but the rest of my family tries to be supportive.

I'm down nearly 40 pounds but not drinking nearly enough Water and the Protein drinks make me nausea but I try daily!!

Try core power light strawberry banana shake. It's the only one I've found that I like. I've lost 181 pounds so I'm pretty close to my goal weight. The liquids were really hard for me early out.

I have found that there is a support group that meets once a month at DCH medical down here so maybe I'll look into attending that. As for you I know that some of the hospitals have support groups. I had my surgery at trinity and they have one called finally free that you could look into.

My family is all in helena and I spend some time there still. I'm just in Tuscaloosa for graduate school so it's not a permanent move!
