I have been a big girl all my life. You know, one of those tall "volutuous" types. At 6 feet my senior year I weighed 183. That weight haunted me till after my hysterectomy 5 years ago. Then the weight really started to creep on. My own GP said "236 isn't a bad weight for your heigth". That is when I knew I had to do something more. I chose the Sleeve and have done all my pre-op. Now I wait the 10 days to hear if the insurance is on board. Then I get my surgery daye and my new life starts! I am studying all the info and buying the vitamines and eating the food so when I have the surgery I will be ready! I hope to learn from you here in this forum to live well with my choice.
