Introducing Me!

Jenna,

Thanks so much for responding! It really is a lot of extra baggage to be carrying around! Even if I just "look" plump - which is the comment I get most. I think I am required to show 3 months, and I could do that in the three months leading up to approval, maybe? It is all so confusing! How has your experience with the sleeve been? 

I am so sorry it took me so long to respond! I LOVE my sleeve! It was the best decision I have made for myself and if I had to make the same decision day after day, I would. I finally feel like myself again. I have been very lucky with my procedure. The only issue I had was some dehydration right after surgery but that was all my fault and only happened the one time, two days after coming home.  

I had a BMI of 36, but I had diabetes, high blood pressure, and asthma.  I got approved no problem or questions asked.   I am only pre-diabetic now...80 lbs. later and below goal.
