I am ongoing with the process of getting a gastric sleeve and am still very hesitant. Im 15 and way overweight with some additional health problems. To people that are or have gotten this surgery, would you let me know why you got it , if it was stressful and how youre doing now ? that would really help

Have you been overweight your entire life? Have you tried structured diet plans and workout plans and continually failed? If so - and you're battling additional health problems due to the excessive weight then clearly this may be the route for you. Try not to psyche yourself out of the losers bench.

Get the sleeve get healthy continue to enjoy your youth! I'm so proud of you!

I'm 16 days post op and I decided to get sleeved because of my health issues. I thought I was healthy because I "felt" great. However, inside my body was taking all the stressors in life and started to show me that everything was not "great". I'm not on the "happy" side of surgery yet because of my discomforts from surgery. I am healing and the pain is subsiding and since the first day I started my journey at the weight loss clinic at 285 pounds....With the pre op dieting, protein shakes, clear liquids and surgery I'm 255 pounds today. I'm excited about that!....Before summer is over, I should be 50 pounds lighter...I can't wait!....Dont wait until your my age to do something about your weight....If you can, Do it!..Live life with no regrets!..
