Hello everyone!

[afstud59 46]

I’m finally getting my gastric sleeve operation on Thursday! I’m 5’10” and weigh almost 300 pounds. 36 years old. I enrolled in the program last April, but due to insurance issues it hasn’t been cleared until now. ! In high school I was athletic, but shortly after graduating ('99) I went from 180 - 250. In 2002 a heartbreak motivated me to shed to extra pounds and get back to 180. Kept that weight off until 2012, then went on a binge cycle of food. No matter what I tried I cannot lose weight like I did before. I am just hungry all of the time. I made the decision to undergo this operation. Nervous as hell but excited at the same time!

Hello. I'm glad that you've made the decision to do the surgery. Where are you having it done?

[afstud59 46]

St. V's in Toledo..... Dr. Fourman. Anyone else?

[CMD516 4]

Mine is being done at Riverside in Columbus by Dr. Rana.

I'm not sure yet. I'm still in the beginning of the process.
