Gastric Sleeve surgery
I have battled my weight my whole life and with my neck and hip issues decided it was time to do something to get it off and keep it off. I started the pre op diet at 308 on March 16 and weighed in at 271 this morning. Still a long way to go, but getting there. |

Way to go brother! Man your beating me on the weight!!! Dog gone it... I am gonna have to work out some more to keep up with you!!!
Honestly i saved very little money by using insurance and doing it here in the states. My total out of pocket cost's are not going to be that much lower than what you paid for the total surgery. If my insurance would not have covered things, or if they would not have covered the surgery which was right for me... i would have went the same route as yourself. In any case, Welcome to the new healthier you...! |

Thanks Ace.
I am not getting hardly any exercise because of my hip/back issues. Going to Houston Monday to get an injection in the hip and hoping for some relief to get some exercise. And it isn't a race to loose. The race is going to be keeping it off. LOL |

Here's to hoping that once the pounds come off you will be able to be more active again.
