I really thought something was wrong with me; although, my labs always come back great. I use an electric heating blanket in the winter and keep a small electric heater under my desk at work. This has helped me a lot to stay warm.
I was over forty when I got sleeved. I have lost over 136 pounds and weigh 126 pounds. I am in year 2 and have surpassed my 150 pound weight goal.
Good Morning!
