My Story

Hello everyone my name is peeches and I wanted to know more about the gastric sleeve I am 5ft 2in and 230 pounds,I really want to have this surgery, I am waiting to get approval by my insurance company, now I have a big setback and its call hair lost as much as I want to have this surgery I really don’t want to lose my hair at all. So I am asking if there are anyone who have had the sleeve and did not lost their hair.
