Hello Everyone!  I am Crystal, 27 years old.  I am happily married to the best man on this planet (Sorry Ladies, he's mine), and we have a wonderful 4 year old boy!  He's the greatest.  My son, is my reason for my journey here with WLS.  I've been told many times by different Physicians, that if I don't do something about my weight, I may not see my baby grow up?  What a terrible thought to concive?  I am currently weighing around 260-270, at 5'6".  I know I am a candiate for surgery.  I'm interested in the "Gastric Sleeve".  I've heard many wonderful things about Dr. Hargroder.  I'm anxiously awaiting to schedule my first meeting with him this Monday!  I am very interested in hearing anyone's pros and cons about this procedure.  So far I've only heard great things!  I hope after, all goes well, my husband and I can extend our family with a few more kiddo's!  Having my son is one of the best things to happen to me, I can only dream right now of sharing that love with another baby.  We've been trying to get preg., since our miscarraige in April of 2007.  My OB said, again, if I don't loose the weight, I will struggle trying to get preg.  So yet another Pro, of getting the procedure done!  I actually can't wait for Monday to call the DR. office and set up my first appt.!  THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BEGINING TO A NEW ME!
