I'm south of you, between Detroit and Toledo. Had my sleeve in Toledo two and a half years ago. It was the best thing ever did for myself. It's hard work, but being fat and always on a diet was harder. I'm about at goal. I've been at this weight for over a year, though I'd be happy to lose another 5-10 pounds. I'm in a size 8, so not too worried about it.

How much do you have to lose? Are you ready to do the work?

Hi there! I'm in Michigan as well, and about to get sleeved on the 18th. I am on the opposite side of the state however, and starting to get nervous the closer I get to my date.

Super excited to finally start losing some weight, though!

Hello, I am in Farmington, MI. I went through St. John Providence Weight Loss Center. Dr. Katz, at the Oakland (Madison Hgts.) location. Had the sleeve on August 26th. I have been doing very well with everything. Happy to answer any and all questions and provide any guidance I can. @@ITGeekGirl, I love GR area. Have been over for Art Prize several years now. My Brother-in-Law went to GV and lives over there. Great City!

That's my surgeon as well I'm waiting on my date now

@@skyjones - You are having Dr. Katz also? Have you been to any of the support group meetings at the education center by the hospital in Madison Heights? If not, I would strongly recommend attending. They are the first monday of every month, from 6pm till 7:30pm. Everyone there is so supportive and helpful.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
