Any teens you got the sleeve?

Hi I'm 16 year old girl who got the sleeve Jan/25/16. It was quite the experience with the bad reaction to morphine and the 2 days of straight dry heaving but I have already lost a good amount of weight. It was all definitely well worth it!

Highest weight:254

Before surgery:246

Now:235

Height 5'6"

Do any of you think I'll have loose skin?

Your younger age will give you the best chance of your skin bouncing back, and it will help also that you are starting at a lowerish BMI. One thing I have learned though, is that if you have stretch marks localized in one area that may be the place that doesn't have much elasticity left. My bet is that you will be very happy with your results!

i am 19 and had it 3 weeks ago i was 71kgs and my height was 4'8 so its much considering my weight im down to 63kgs!! 3 more to be in the 50s finally!
