Hi my name is Angela and I am very happy to announce that I had my Bari artic sleeve surgery Oct. 7th and I'm doing great. I'm just trying to balance what I can eat with making healthy meals for my family. I lost a total of 20lbs and I'm very proud of myself. I love to walk and I'm not looking forward to winter. I would love to meet people on here to encourage and to be encouraged.
