I had always been overweight. Throughout school elementary thru college, I would always overhear comments like "oh the fat one" or something similar. I always thought I looked good not great, and I started searching for ways to help myself get to a more healthy range. Throughout the years I did MANY different diets and when I stopped I would gain the weight back and then some. I started looking into surgery about a year ago and realized that not only was my BMI morbidly obese, but i also had the co morbidity of sleep apnea. A friend of mine had a sleeve done and I felt that would be the best procedure for me! I got my insurance requirements and started right away. I was approved in Jan 2011 and I had my surgery at the end of Feb. I can't wait to see how this tool helps me with my health journey.
