Need a buddy. Sleeve in August.
Im Michelle from Colorado. I am having a Sleeve in August. I weigh over 400lbs. I am 45 years old. I love animals. Especially cats. I am a homemaker. Its so painful to walk that I am in a wheelchair. I used to be in the Air Force and was very athletic. Got injured in the military and started gaining weight. Want to get my life back. Hubby is afraid I will die before he retires in 3 years. Anyways, I want a buddy to go thru this journey with. Now that the surgery is set, I have been going thru all kinds of emotions. Did that happen to you?
Hi Michelle, I too am from Colorado. I live in Falcon and my VSG is scheduled for 9-17-13. I was prior service (Army) and have been married almost 23 years to a retired US Army soldier. I have 3 sons, 20 (in the Army) 16 (Jr in HS) and 10 (5th grade). I work for Ft Carson in their hospital as a Respiratory Care Practitioner. I look forward to sharing this journey and to be able to bounce ideas off of and give encouragement. I look forward to sitting with you on the "loser's bench".
