Boy, have things changed!
It's been quite a while since I've been on this site and I've made some serious changes. I underwent a vertical gastric sleeve procedure 1/7/11 and am feeling great! I need to amp up the exercise, but the weight has been coming off, nearly 30 pounds since January. I didn't make this decision lightly. Weight loss was my initial reason for looking into it, but the info I found out during all the pre-op medical really opened my eyes. Chlorestoral was dangerously high; pre-diabetic; morbidly obese just to name a few. My whole eating strategy has completey changed. I no longer feel hungry. I just have to overcome the psychological "hunger"....you know the kind. You think you should be hungry so you eat. I gotta run...more later!
