Hi guys,

Just wondering if there are any sleevers out there having or had surgery done weighing 200lbs and if so, did you lose much from it?

I'm so so scared. I've read loads of good stories on here thank God, but the very few people I have told are really against my decision. My husband is half and half about it. He is paying for my surgery but he is ready to bail at any given moment due to outside influences. I've battled with my weight my whole entire life. Even at the age of 6 I weighed 8 stone. (112lbs) this is the smallest I've been in my whole adult life, but it's coming back and fast!! So I feel this is my last attempt at making myself happy. I know weight loss isn't a magic cure to make you happy, but I'm fortunate enough to have all I want and need, except for being able to look in the mirror without crying and not wearing the clothes I want to wear!

Thanks to anyone that reads.

Have a great day

I'm 207 and am currently undergoing my 6 month diet for insurance. This is my heaviest and have tried for years to lose it. I've been in medication for hypertension and high cholesterol and my primary care physician actually recommended it. I was happy I met with my surgeon. I need to lose 80+ lbs to be in my ideal weight range so the sleeve is a great idea. At first my husband wasn't on board but after taking him with me he's my biggest cheerleader now. Hoping for the best for you. I'm currently 4/6 months for weigh in so hoping to hear a surgery date for February

Hi Rachel,

I'm 206 at 5'6. I've been feeling the exact same way, wondering how much I'd lose and would this huge surgery be worth it. I've told no one but my husband, he's very supportive but doesn't truly understand the struggle. I so appreciate your post and all the replies. My surgery is in 2 days! Dec 13th.
