Hi, Im a 49 yr old male that was sleeved in Detroit Mi. on February 3rd, 2014. HW 426 lbs, SW 380 lbs, CW 308 lbs.( 118 lbs gone FOREVER) Its been an incredible trip so far and I am looking forward for summer.A few things that have happened since my surgery: Im off of 4 meds so far, My BP is now normal. My BMI is down 17.1 pts since December of 2013. I have lost 34 inches from my body and hoping to pack my CPAP unit away. The coolest is talking to pre-op and post op pts at the hospital I work at. To tell them my story and show them how their life will be changed for the better is awesome. Life is really good now. Happy man here !!
