Hello my name is Mike. I was sleeved last May. Unfortunately it was far from home so support outside of my family is minimal. No groups or anything. I would like a few fitness pal friends who have had the gastric sleeve. I'm 40 years old and Highest weight was 458. I was 440 last Christmas and 398 at surgery. Currently 348 range

Thank you,
Michael

    I am going through the pre-surgery process for the sleeve now and would love to have some friends who have been through it, are thinking about it, or who are just generally supportive!

    I had my procedure done on August 27. This is the third week post-op, and I've lost 25 pounds since my pre-op liquid diet!
  • I had my gastric sleeve done Jan 2011 ... Started at 375 when i started pursuing the surgery (that not even being my heaviest), 345 day of surgery...and Today i am 211 lbs... I have a lil ways to go yet..but it was the best decision i have ever made for myself...saved me from myself more like it

    Sleeved December 2011. I'm more than happy to have some fellow sleevers on my friends list! =)
  • Hi Samantha,
    Looks like we are on a similar path, but you are 10 months ahead of me. Would love to be friends and get some advice on your fantastic success.
    I had the sleeve on 9/11. So I'm 10 days post op.
    I'll send you a friend request.
