I love my Sleeve!

Hi.. My 13 month review.
It was really hard to get my head around thing's initially but as time has gone by I have gotten used to my new lifestyle & am loving life again. I have had some struggles as one would expect after a major surgery & I have co-morbidities which initially made my recovery slower... Apart from the pain from the surgery, I was very sick for the first 4 months with nasea & vomiting.. I couldn't keep food down, even water! My dietician was helpful at that stage with ideas on different food & liquid consistencies which helped. Last yr I slacked off with taking my daily multivitamins & making sure I ate enough protein and due to that I suffered massive hair loss & lost nearly half of my hair, but luckily I had thick hair to start with & now my hair is growing back!
Thankfully I got through the tough times with support from friends, family & professionals & the experiences made me stronger & wiser. I have learned allot. I have so many things to be thankful for now due to my weight loss. I have cut down on so much medication & I no longer have high blood pressure...They even think my sleep apnoea has gone! I can move easier and faster. Before my surgery I couldn't even go to the mail box. Now I can walk kms & keep up with the kids!!

It's nearly 13 months since my surgery. I've never been happier with myself!
