I have been gone from this site for more then a year and managed to have my weight climb back up to 211 lbs. This past September I made the decision to have weight-loss surgery. On 12/26/12, I had the Vertical Sleeve done. My whole life has changed since that day. I have quite a bit of weight to loose yet, but I hope that this time because of the surgery, that I will finally be able to "KEEP" the weight off. As the surgeon repeatedly told me....this is ONLY a tool, I must still work to get the pounds off. Still having trouble motivating for exercise. I put tremendous pressure on my knees and they are doing better since dropping some pounds, but I have a ways to go.
