My New Sleeve (08/07/2013)
I love how a quarter cup of pureed vegetarian vegetable soup tastes after being on a liquid diet for three weeks -- how the taste of simple foods please and satisfy.

Since I suffer from heart failure, and was really obese (BMI 46) I made my decision and di... * read more.
Life changing (07/25/2013)
I was very skeptical about this surgery and more so the location when my friend told me about it. I refused to look into it thinking she was nuts, but once I saw the results I was all in.

I think I got carried away with the introduction and told most of my story there. I want to say I had the best time having this surgery done. The people at the hotel to the doctors and nurses were awesome.
I was informed of what was going to happen, what to expect and went thru the whole thing pai... * read more.
