Introducing Myself

Hi everyone!!

My name is Michelle and I am new to this group.  I was sleeved on 2/11/11 and so far recovery has been awesome. 

I am the mother of 5 children 3 boys and 2 girls.  I have an amazing husband who has been so supportive.  I decided to have this surgery because I was 267 lbs and out of control.  With some fuction of only 1 kidney, hypertension and chronic joint pain... the obesity was ruining my quality of life.  I have been reborn and now am focused toward a new happier, healthier me.

I look forward to getting to know members of this group and extend support to whomever may be in need.

thanks for listening'
Michelle

Jump right on in - everyone is super nice and congrats with your sleeve and I hope you have speedy recovery.... We are here if you need us!!!

Welcome to the family Michelle.  Congrats on your sleeve.  I had RNY, the sleeve was not an option at the hospital I chose, at least when I had surgery, it is now an option and I know folks who love theirs too. 

Feel free to add comments, ask questions, we are here to support each other through the process.  Weekends can be a little quite at times.  We make the group what it is.  Focus on life, live it and love it.  Chat sessions happen each monday, just left tonights chat session.  This is a great way for immediate responses.  The people present at chat determine the content.  We discuss what is pressing with those present.

Hugs

Hello and welcome!  You will love it here.  Everyone is so supportive.
