Wow. It's time for an update. Last month was my 3rd surgiversary. I never made it to my goal weight as I got married to the love of my life in November 2014 and at present I am 6 months pregnant. I'm struggling with my rapid weight gain and going back to being top heavy as I was pear shaped post surgery. But being happy and excited has outweighed my worries. The sleeve helped me changed my life. I would recommend it to anyone struggling with health and weight.
